Bass, lead guitar, 2 rhythm guitars (one of which doesn't do much -- could have done more but sparse was better in my opinion). Every instrument is one take (not the first attempt, though). The drums are midi.
The solo isn't the original one, which is played backwards. I did a one note tremelo picked thing which came out quite well so I kept it. There is supposed to be some feedback in places, but I can't do that. { Tags : Clash, punk, cover }
I just busked the guitar. The bass is all one take, for CATPM. The solo is on bas, too. The drums are MIDI file, this time played by my computer rather than my recording gizmo. { Tags : pop }
I'm only playing bass, the rest is a midi file I downloaded from someplace. Should probably have played something better to lead into the solo, but I only did root note.

Not entirely happy with this recording. It's not all one take, but even so it's still not good enough. I'm going to regard it more as a marker, so I can compare next year's performance. { Tags : classical, satie }
Mostly just bass and drums -- very annoying drums, which worked fine as a midi played in, say, WMP. But my recording device sometimes gives up when it can't manage and simply plays lots of snare drum as its interpretation of the MIDI.
Bass went well though, one take -- a couple of errors I'd normally change but I felt it was better to keep it as one take.
I had to do the guitar riff, obviously... { Tags : rock, cover, bass }
I doubled the guitars, which might have been a mistake. It seemed to work better than any single tone I tried. Plus the (midi) drums before the outro chorus are way too loud. They're quieter on my sequencer, but on the recording gear they come out loud. Nuff excuses. { Tags : indie, rock, pop }
Original is at about 140bpm. Still got a couple of months work on this, but I'm uploading it for the 'Call all musicians' thread: http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1509263&page=4 { Tags : funk, bass, slap, slow }
Not as good as it should be. About 3 or four punch-ins, and a little faster than I can comfortably play it. And I do the solo differntly to Chapdelaine. { Tags : Hippy, folk }
Paul Bielatowicz's version as tabbedin Guitar Techniques 204. My version is at 62bpm. Reached the deadline in the 'calling all musicians' thread 11. So didn't have time to do a better version. I did record one at 90bpm, but my pull offs were too embarrassing. { Tags : classical, Bielatowicz }
Did this in a hurry, so not much of a drum track. And, no, this isn't what Geddy plays on the official recording -- I based it on the demo tape they did. Cost me 33 million to buy that tape. Really! { Tags : Rush }
As taken from GT206, arranged by Bridget Mermikides. My performance makes it sounds like a real foot stamping waltz. This wasn't intentional. It's a bit more lyrical when it isn't just 1,2,3, 1,2,3.
And the fermatas aren't the way I would like them -- I played to a metronome for all but the last bit. Why? so that I could punch in more easily. The odds of me getting this all in one performance are very low at the moment. { Tags : classical }
