Lockdown YouTube cover - Steeleye Span

[EddHytheTown]

With face to face playing obviously limited at the moment, I thought I'd have a crack at recording some covers and uploading to YouTube.

By no means do I have a professional setup, so I would appreciate any tips any one has for more effective recording and EQ to mix my playing into the background song without being too much/too little.

Recording set up is: Boss BR80 as the interface, Audacity, camera video recording and Lightworks for editing.

There don't seem to be too many Steeleye covers around and I plan to record a few more. YouTube link here.

Hopefully I dont fall foul of copyright requirements etc., but if its gets challenged I'll take it down - I only did it for fun anyway!

Cheers, Edd

Excellent stuff- bass sounds good. Used to love the Span- Rick Kemp an early influence.

Much appreciated thanks. I've put up a Thomas the Rhymer take as well now.

Agreed, I really enjoy Rick Kemp's playing. Some very interesting lines right through the Steeleye catalogue.
