All 2020 Covers

12/18/2020

2020 has been a year full of challenges, and even though many of them were of a pandemic nature, I wanted to challenge myself both musically and creatively, all while staying safe at home. How? By making covers that pay tribute to the artists that inspired me growing up or more recently and making a video for every one of them. For each cover, I took inspiration not only from that artist, but from other artists, genres and concepts, which allowed me to not just rerecord the song, but presenting it in a new and intriguing way. I had a great time making these covers this year, and as we're approaching the end of it, I thought it would be fun to make cover art for each one and put them together in a quick end-of-the-year recap to revisit them one more time before we move on to new adventures in the new year. Thank you for listening.

Love Gun Cover

12/2/2020

KISS was one of the first rock bands I ever listened to and I can proudly say that I’m a lifelong fan, or member of the KISS army, as the fans like to call themselves. The band’s stage show and Ace Frehley’s guitar solos fueled my desire to become an electric lead guitarist as an 11-year-old and I still consider KISS to be one of my major influences.

​“Love Gun” is one of my favorite KISS songs. It was originally released in 1977 on the album with the same name, and has been a staple in KISS setlists since then. As a huge fan of Michael Jackson and producer Quincy Jones, I wanted to use “The Way You Make Me Feel” as the foundation for this cover, imagining what the song could’ve sounded like, if it came out in 1987, ten years later.

Baroque & Roll

10/14/2020

I can thank Yngwie Malmsteen for helping me take my guitar playing to the next level. I discovered his music as a teenager, when I fell off my bike at the age of 13 and couldn’t play guitar for a week. My brother recommended that I check out Yngwie Malmsteen and I’m thankful to this day that I did. Hearing songs like “Black Star” and “Far Beyond The Sun” completely blew me away, thanks to his incredible technique and neoclassical sound. “Baroque & Roll,” which was released in 2002 on the “Attack!!” album, captures both the melodic and the virtuoso essence of Yngwie Malmsteen. I was first introduced to this song while watching the G3 Live in Denver DVD. It instantly became one of my favorite songs, and I can’t think of a better pick for a humble tribute to The Maestro himself.

Mastered at Abbey Road Studios by Andy Walter.

Guitar: Fender Stratocaster with Dimarzio pickups. Tone Zone (B), Air Norton (M & N.) Bass: Fender Jazz Bass. Guitar and bass was recorded with a Fractal Axe-Fx III.

“Baroque & Roll” was written by Yngwie J. Malmsteen and originally released on the “Attack!!” album in 2002. This is a licensed re-recording by Rocky Kramer with license number: 1456981352.
