Rolling Stones Get Off Off My Cloud Cover LRRGI like the old Stones songs. What they do nowadays should be forbidden but in the old days they were cool. My mom had a 45" of this tune and as a kid I loved this song. Me and my sister used to play airguitar when we put it on the old plastic turntable and jump around the room. I used my little Fender amp to record one guitartrack and I also plugged the mic in there to record the vocals and used the headphone jack to send the signal to my Edirol soundcard. I wanted an old-fashioned sound. I put a bit of pre-amp on the Fender so the vocals are a tiny bit distorted to make it more oldies-sounding. Drums and bass were programmed in Reason as usual. The bass constantly doing the high A and B notes on the D string which I love. Gives it more energy and that buzzing sound. I also put an organ in it because I couldn't figure out what the hell Brian Jones and Keith Richard were playing on their guitars, so to hell with difficult guitar parts and let the organ fill it up a bit. I don't use tabs. I don't even know how to read them. Too difficult. For the verses I only put 1 vocal track. In the chorus I added a couple of vocal tracks. Also put in some handclaps. For the video I taped some of my gear and put it in there, otherwise it's pretty boring just to stare at myself standing there singing :-)
