This is my all-time favorite song. Always played LOUD. One guy plays all the instruments better than I can clap. Do yourself a favour and listen through good headphones.

Wow Perfect, doing a cover of my favorite group. I bet if he's not going to Juilliard School of music he's a grad. Had to have Rockman. I love mine, but can't play like that. Wow!!!! Great find muzza

Actually if you look at the singer from 7:00 to 7:15 it's not in sinc.....I'm sure it took multiple takes and a dose of editing. But real cool nonetheless.

He addresses the sync issues in the description.
...And to continue with muzza's favourite song; an acoustic version. Not as technical as the first, but equally impressive. The guy's a knob, but geez he's got some pipes! No Adamas or Ovation content, but who really cares when you're this damn good.

kitmann - 2012-04-16 1:37 PMHad to have Rockman.
I think that should read "Should" have had a Rockman. Loved the effort and an EXCELLENT version of the tune. Amazing vocals, but as someone who has used Rockman gear since it first came out... I wish he would have just at least used a Rockman Sustainer. Whatever he used was VERY close to the tone, but not the texture and response. There are some great units out there that get that tone as many of us having been looking for modern solutions, but most fall short in the compression, sustain and signal to noise area where if you want the Boston sound... there's only one way to get it. It was real obvious (that it wasn't there) on the Acoustic guitar part.

Incredible! Thanks Muzza for sharing this...I'm not gonna pick this apart: it's too good and I certainly couldn't do better...I agree about the Rockman...gotta have it to get the Boston sound...But what talent: the singer simply nails Brad Delp...very cool!

My Rockman finally gave up the ghost, but that little box kept me going from late 80s into the 90s. I never was much of an electric player but when we lived in a small appartment, I could hook up a few phones and lullaby my dear one to sleep. Sounded huge!
Freakin AWESOME cover. Even got some Adamas action.
