Blackwaterside Stomp

Just as a reference here's the more well known versions of Blackwaterside/Black Mountainside.
My favorite cover
 
IMO:
  • The first (Bert Jansch) is a recording that's out of balance (vox v. guitar).
  • The second (Led Zeppelin) is just pretentious, repetitious and boring (sorry fans).
  • The last (Cams Campbell) is a good performance in a room with horrible acoustics.
Now, this version by Anne Briggs I like.:)
And also this other Bert Jansch recording. Great finger style, good balance!:)

Yeah, I have strong opinions when it comes to audio engineering and music creation.

But they're just my own opinions. ymmv. ;)

Mark Richards. I'm just glad that your heat is directed at the sound and song quality in those videos instead of my cover...lol

Since there's a bunch of covers of this song on Youtube I figure I might as well add another. The pictures in the video help detail "My Epic Home Studio" ..lol.
 
It seems this person has pulled all of their material down. ???
