This is a video I made. It's a cover of Jambi which I recorded a while back in a recording studio I own and run. I am now in a blues band; and did this cover to keep my rock guitar playing techniques up to scratch - and for fun. Had I received more interest, I'd have considered making a couple more, but so far it hasn't had much feedback.

I thought I'd share with you all incase some of you here are interested.

Regards,
Steve.
Good job man. Looks like a nice studio.
Was I hearing extra long echo/reverb on the guitar solo?
Have a look at the description section of the youtube video for full audio and equipment specs. It is also noted there that my video suffers slight sync issues in and around the solo. Sorry about that. Thanks for listening.

mindspace, sounds great! Only recommendation I would have is to work on muting the higher strings when playing the main rolling riff with palm mutes (such as around 3:10 or so). You sound really good though, especially during the solo, despite the syncing issues. Would really like to see anything more from you :) Welcome to FE!

Yea good point. I always get over excited and make a recording as soon as I've it all learnt, rather than waiting to practice it for a while first to get the phrasing and technique perfected. Nice pointer to keep in mind though - cheers for that. :)

That's very cool on the piano, I love to watch people play Tool piano covers but that's one of the more advanced ones I've seen. She also has Vicarious, The Grudge and H. posted too. Even cooler, if you visit her website and "donate" you can acquire sheet music which she's written herself for these arrangements... pretty awesome.

I'm sure I've seen this version of Lateralus done somewhere before, with a less professionally shot video.

Not sure if this got posted in here yet. Tried to skim back and then gave up because... 9 pages. :) Anyway, here's Amenra (good band) doing Parabol. Muy bueno.

One of the best Tool covers I've ever heard.

Not really a cover, but a breakdown of a Tool song. Videos like this really make me appreciate Tool's music that much more. To the lay person they would agree that Tool's riffs sound great, and they have a certain feel to them; but when you see how its broken down you see WHY it makes people feel that way. Tool fans feel the additional substance and depth that the music offers, even if they dont necessarily understand why. Very cool.

I really enjoyed that Schism video. It isolated lots of cool things about the song I'd never really appreciated before.
