Cover: Helpless by Neil Young

[HeyHeyMyMy]

I recorded this cover back a month or so ago. Compared with some of the Dylan stuff I've posted recently, I'm much less happy with how this tune turned out. Any help you folks might be able to offer would be great.

I know that the end needs to be cut down / faded out much earlier.

Thanks for taking the time to listen.

Very clean, overall.

Don't touch it!......
Or maybe put more faux whine in the lead vocal?

Ha ha, thanks. Only Neil can really pull off that whine.

i liked it alot , like the rest i listen to 'em on headphones...

to me everythying sits well, i like your vocal and the backing vocal is great also

compared to the 2 dylan tunes i listen to, i dont think i can say one is better than the other, im really impressed with them all, your voice suits the dylan songs more but thats neither a good or a bad point its just a point, there is a lot more goin' on in this one so im gonna have another listen....
