Here's a rough acapella snippet, as promised. Sang all three verses

 

​Hey GSoul, I could not even see the attached file. It shows an empty window in my screen. What am I doing wrong?

​I think that must have happened because I changed my soundcloud link a couple days ago. I'll put the new link in a little later.

​Don't worry about it, Dew.  It's great to have as many people as possible get involved with this, but everyone knows that life can get busy at the drop of a hat, and suddenly the time isn't there. I managed to get an attempt off and tried to get a second version done, but the time wasn't there. I didn't manage to record anything with a backing track this time. I want that to be different this month, so I'm going to see if I can make that happen.

Speaking of this month, it would be great if you could be a part of it. We're running two challenges this month: Jazz and Country. And it would still be nice to have you post a Highway Star cover in here.

​How about "Highway Star" as sung by Willie Nelson? No one has done that, yet.

Little bit of that Willie walking bass run on an acoustic guitar .....

​  I was thinking more on the lines of  George Thorogood distortion on the lower octave and change the words a little.

   Nobody gonna take my Dew.....Gonna drink it till I die.

  Nobody gonna get my Dew....Let me tell you why

  Ooooh Its slimey and Green, All Caffene........ I love it!   I need it!    I feed it!

  It's a wild ride ... All Right....Hold Tight......   I've got some in my Car...........

Great job, everyone. It was nice to see what everyone had to offer I know I certainly learned something from the feedback I got from my own attempt. I hope everyone here will give at least one of the two challenges we're about to have start for June (Country and Jazz) a chance.
