Mustang Sally remake - Check't out...

[schenkerguy]

Here's a little remake I did of Mustang Sally, the old classic. I thought my back vocals were not bad though I'm no singer..

Any comments appreciated, thanks!

Sounds like the end to a Shrek movie.

Hmm, was that song in a Shrek movie? I don't know, I've never seen any of them..

Hi schenkerguy,
Sounds good to me man, your vocals sound better than mine! I used to play this song when I played in bar bands. It always went over good. Your recording is good, very clear. I think you've done a good job!!!!

i like it, but i think the playing and singing could have been a bit more aggressive and energetic. it sounds to happy and relaxed to me. the over all sound is great tho. im just not a huge fan of teh auto tune on the back up vox, or what ever that effect is its hard for me to tell over all, well done

There's no Autotune, the back vocals are 6 tracks of me doing 3 part harmonies. There's a little compression and EQ..

Thanks for the comments!

I always had it in the back of my mind to do this song as a cover. However, I don't think I can top this....

I like everything except the lead vocals. I wish there was a little more grit to it, a little more life, a little more soul. As it is now, sounds kind of... perfected.

Everything else is well played, well arranged, well mixed. Well, it just sounds great.

Thanks for sharing.

I too like everything but the lead vocal.. If I had a gritty soulfull vocalist I'd happily let him take over, but..

The song sat around on the Artist Collaboration website for a couple of months but nobody would do a vocal! As usual it was "I better sing it.. or trash it.."

This sounds pretty good, but you castrated the song. This is a soul song. It's gotta have feeling and power. This is lacking emotion and edge. It's not entirely your fault though. This song is super popular and been done a million times. I'd just like it a lot dirtier.

The mix sounds good. There's something about the snare I don't like, but I can't quite pinpoint what it is. It sounds a little fat. Personally, I think a tighter, maybe more compressed snare sound would fit better.
