:headscratch: There's a great studio version of "I Would For You".. it's a b-side on the stop single n' stuff. But hey, covers are fun, so rock on.

I listened to this yesterday and here is my super-brief response:

*Vocals pretty good. A little plain, but inoffensive and fairly good at capturing the pitch and tone of vintage Farrell, albeit without all of the magic, or a number of distinguishing details.

*Don't dig the way the word "you" from the line "I would for you" is repeatedly sung as "you-o-ou." It's fine a few times, but I think it's more direct and effective when it's just a slide from one note down to another, without the rise in the middle.

*Production is nice.

*Sticking some Desconstruction at the end was a neat touch.

Overall, a nice job.

Jimmy, Jasper is a pretty cool guy and I'm sure he was only giving you some honest criticism.
I wouldn't get upset or angry about it.
When you put your work / art out there not everybody is gonna love or hate it.
Me personally, I like it and I appreciate you sharing it with us.
