                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Sounds like you just need to transpose it downward until it's in your vocal range. Then you won't hurt yourself! 

I have been able to get in tone the chorus of Old Man. Still not as high as 'gold Rush, but maybe I can build on it. I can never sing "I felt like getting high." because of getting a rupture at "There was a band playin'", and have to stop. Love that song on Live Rust, btw.<br><br>Now ever further off topic, I re-arranged "Un-Known Legend" from a poor chord chart into a good one, it you're interested.]]></content:encoded>

Occasionally I'll jump into some Neil Young, "Old Man" or "After The Goldrush".  Even less occasionally I'll start in on something that's been running through my head that I need to get out.  Lately that's been "Blue Skies" (Allman Bros.)]]></content:encoded>

Yes, that's all it is. Back in the very early 80's my brother and I had a band, and this was one of the songs we covered, I have been playing it ever since. We also covered Helicopter, and Making Plans for Nigel.<br><br><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dvtHZSUaGA&amp;feature=related">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dvtHZSUaGA&amp;feature=related</a><br><br><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8B3YVa4zQQ&amp;feature=related">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8B3YVa4zQQ&amp;feature=related</a><br><br>This was back in the New Wave days, we were doing the Cars, Talking Heads and others.
