OPEN HOUSE BLUES

Hi to all music friends:

Finally, after a couple of months, without playing, Open House Blues has reunited again for having a few hours together, to play, to talk, to have a few beers and specially to enjoy our time together.
Unfortunally that time went up so fast that we didn't notice... the setence that says that time flys when we are having fun is an undeniable fact.

This time the choice was over a song that we all know for ages... and during this time without playing, we have been in touch with each other and we decide to make this cover severall weeks ago... so we had lot's of time to prepare... when this weekend we reunited to record .... it all went so easy that we have recorded this song in just a few minutes.... it was all at first take, no overdubs, no seconds chances... it was pick up the instrument and play....

Evidently it has some mistakes but it all went so well that we decide to leave it like this... and it all happens so fast and so well that we had time to structure our next original song ... but that's another story.

Cortez the Killer (Cover) by an original of Neil Young.

This song can and should be heard in Youtube

OPEN HOUSE BLUES IS:

Manuel Rodrigues - Acoustic Guitar/ Voice

José Kafka - Keyboards

Jean Loup - Electric Guitar

Emanuel Correia - Bass Guitar

 

Hope you enjoy it!!!!

Hi Emanuel:

Delighted to see you guys back together again.   For a one take session, not bad.  Not bad at all, man!  I listened to the session twice, and was very impressed by both guitars, and especially Jean's guitar licks near the finish.  Your bass holds a nice, steady and solid presence throughout.  Of course, José's keyboards are terrific (as usual).  Tell José that his work is quite commendable. 

I know that this was a "live" session, so naturally the acoustics are not exactly of A-1 quality, but even so, this cover stands up, and is certainly worth a listen.  I would love to hear this track mixed down in a studio, so folks could get a better audio representation of just how talented you fellas are (as a group and as individuals).

Thanks Manny, for presenting this piece.

Hi Emanuel,

though the sound for this strong song is not optimal , but the cover alone with you , your friends and the great music studio tell me something about you. Would I stay at the corner with you, I would certainly visit you !

As I said, the sound is not quite optimal , but for me that is not so important!
Many greetings to all musicians .


Gruss Freddy

This is your first song I hear, everything I thought it was well done, clearly you are not a novice in the music and feel
music which I think is quality, because I feel a strong research.
I can only give a positive opinion

It's not the sound that's important here. You and your friends have a certain soul of music, a good feeling for the other one.

I love this!

Hoi Emanuel

To cover the gitarre of Neil Young is certainly not easy.
The sound of his instrument is incomparable, his technique dirty but very groovy.

I know the original song and find your cover very close to the original. Unfortunately, the sound quality is not very clean .... but no matter.

very good work.

en liebe gruess vom

Hi Emanuel

I am a big, big fan of Crosby, Still, Nash and Young and have been for many years and then Neil Young by himself.

THe guitar is reminescent of Young's sound but it is YOUR version and very good. You are lucky to have a group of friends who enjoy a common love of music and its possibilities.  Your passion is evident in all of your music, whether you play Rock , Jazz or something mellow.  I always look forward to your music, Manny and even though you do not post a lot of songs on here, you always, always contribute something that is important to listen to and offers variety, substance and quality

ThanksTrish

I know nothing about music. Only listened .. Using technology also makes possible for me to be able to make music.

  I am also into photography amateur.

I'm not here for stars score but coment with advice for improvement of my music.


at my coment on music of others, I remain honest. this must be mutual .

I give my voice just as public and not as someone who knows something from music.

 I'm open to all criticism. I want to learn something

Nicely done! You captured Neil's style to a "T". Live version aside, everything is perfect for  a grunge classic.

 

Great job!

Cheers,
