Hi Jeff,

Up to now, I have made only a few EJ Covers only along with others,
but in the future I guess I will concentrate on EJ.
Here's some other links, in order from latest to oldest:

Belfast -

Shoot Down The Moon -

Mona Lisas And Mad Hatters -

Roy Rogers -

Your Song -

Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word -


The recording quality has improved (was really really crappy) a lot I
think, but I'm still working on it.

I'm pretty determined to record "Blues For Baby And Me" next.
If you have any requests, let me have'em =)

I listened to "Shoot Down the Moon," a song which I've always loved, and you
did a great job. It's nice to see someone who recognizes and no doubt
appreciates that song! I literally just finished listening to "Sorry
Seems..." and your piano playing is good on that song but your vocal isn't
as strong as on "Shoot Down..." You didn't seem to be as confident for some
reason.

As for requests, here's a couple for you to consider. "Ego" and "Long Way
From Happiness."

I found some of your others and they are really good. I acally like
your verion of First Episode At Hienton better than Eltons.

Looks like you have some quality equipment.

If you are taking request, how about Sixty Years On?
That's my favorite Elton song.

I detect a slight accent. Where to you hail from?

Thanks,

jeff

Very nice. I liked it a lot. I usually don't live covers of Elton
John material but this is an exception!!!

Hi,

thanks for all your feedback!

@Brian Smith - Absolutely true about "Sorry" - the vocals are pretty
weak. Maybe I'll re-record it one day, but there's others I want to do
before that. Ego is way out of my league (man, this track is so uber-
difficult in every way!), but I'll definitely do (at least) one track
from "The Big Picture" - "Long Way From Happiness" is definitely an
option!

@JeffWeHo - Those detectors of yours are indeed right! My accent must
be "ze German" one, then...I'll pin down "Sixty Years On" for a more
accent-free rendition! My recording Equipment is rather low-budget (Mic
+Stand+Popkiller:~120$ , Mixer:~40$, StagePiano:~200$ , Piano Sound
Module:~350$), it's the software that is more pricy (Cubase 5,
EastWest Quantum Leap Symphonic Orchestra Gold)

I know this is not an EJ Song, but many of us here also like Billy
Joel.
So, here's my latest Cover "Leningrad" :
