Title: I think I'm happy with my sound...

These were shot from a digital camera (not a camcorder), using the room sound.  Not too bad.  I'm using the Bettie Page bass through the Ashdown on this.

The Falcons' You're So Fine... wow, always liked that song, don't remember hearing it covered before. That's got to be almost 50 years old.

Bass sounds fine, at least as much as I can tell through my computer speakers.

We're doing a lot of old country - at least I think it is.  Our singer did house band work for years in country music.

Some of the other things we do (mix of country, classic rock, oldies, etc.) are:

Blue Moon of Kentucky
Earth Angel
Sweet Nuthin'
Seven Spanish Angels
Something You Got
Under The Boardwalk
Harper Valley PTA
Bring It On Home To Me
Warm and Tender Love
What Am I Living For (I've been using the Dean 8-string on that)
Maybe


We're thinking of adding Working Man Blues from Merle Haggard

The Falcons' lead singer was Joe Stubbs, Levi's brother. After he left, a guy named Wilson Pickett took his place for awhile. So I don't think you'd classify them as old country.  ;)  But I see you do some other old R&B --What Am I Living For, Under The Boardwalk.
