This is my cover of the XTC song "Mayor of Simpleton". I am really not happy with the sound quality or the mix, but then again, I am not a recording engineer, so have a heart. Dave Gregory really, really outdoes himself on this song. The bass line is about the best bass line in a song that there is, and the melody is just...magic. Hope I've done it justice.

Wow, just discovered you and I am awestruck at your accuracy and obvious talent. I'm gonna spend all day tomorrow having my own XTC karaoke day, and I don't care that I can't sing ..

Fantastic. Rocket From A Bottle - The Dukes (an XTC tribute band) We took a run at this. I think it's quite good.

Can you share us how do you play this song on guitar? I only see many bass cover videos.

Absolutely terrific. By meticulously showcasing the guitar and bass parts you've made me appreciate the original song even more than I already did, which is saying something.

@johannquatz Well, I had about 3-4 different bass patterns programmed, but I might have entered one of them wrong. YT screws with the actual sound as I mastered it, so you can hear that kick drum very easily with the MP3. I couldn't really give a toss about making it 100% perfect. 95% is plenty good enough for me. :)

Lovely. Nailed it all, save for ... I can't hear down in the mix, did you hit the kick drum notes right and buried them? Partridge can't make anything easy...its a 1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2....otherwise, perfecto!

@BOBNOMO Glad you liked it. I'm not so sure if it's superior or not, but what I did was to double track it. The Rick is already full sounding but double tracking it really gives it some body. There are 6 guitars in this. Rick in each channel double tracked and then a Tele double tracked for Andy's rhythm part. It helps if you're really repeatable in your playing, but if you can do it, it really helps a mix. Thanks a lot!

Dude, you totally nailed this tune. I'm a bassist, and I know that part is correct. What I've always struggled with is the guitar part, and it sounds fantastic the way you did it here. Not just the fact that it's on a 12-string (a Ricky, I'm sure), but the part is just perfect. I'm going to present this tune to my cover band to learn, and your instrumental cover is just the thing for our guitarist! Well done!!
