mfc2006

several people have messaged me on myspace lately asking me to post some covers. here are the top 10. PLEASE help me pick 3-4 to cover/record/post. i can't decide. thanks!


-NUDE: Radiohead
-DONDANTE: My Morning Jacket
-WALLS: Tom Petty
-SMILE: PJ
-AMEN OMEN: Ben Harper
-I AM MINE: PJ
-TANGERINE: Led Zep
-NEEDLE IN THE HAY: Elliott Smith
-WHATEVER: Elliott Smith
-LOW LIGHT: PJ

those are the top 10...there are several others that are close...in any case, i'd like to do something a little "different" and post a few covers esp since these requests have been coming in. what should i play? thanks again---Matt

listened to your myspace, you have a really cool sound.

having listened to your voice i'd go with lowlight, amen omen and dondante.

interesting that people would request amen omen over some of harpers other tunes. alone and two hands of a prayer would sound killer with your voice.

thanks! glad you liked what you heard.

i thought the same thing about BH. i've covered amen omen live before, which may be why friends & people that were there are asking for it. i absolutely love to play Alone. such a great, great song.

I vote for Tangerine, but only if you're adding the steel guitar part.

A Patton Fan

Tangerine & Smile.

I say Low Light from your list...

But from off the list, I'd like to throw out "See How We Are" by X

hey everyone--

i've recorded these 4 songs so far:
"Between The Bars" by Elliott Smith
"Elderly Woman" by PJ
"Dondante" by My Morning Jacket
"Nude" by Radiohead

i was going to start a new myspace page that was strictly covers, and then i realized that wasn't really a good idea due to copyright law. in any case, i'm going to keep recording these songs that i love to play...it's a nice break from what i've been working on lately. so if you want to hear my renditions of them, just shoot me a pm with your email & i'll send them your way. hope you like them & thanks for listening!

Rocket Man (I Think It's Going To Be A Long, Long Time) - Elton J?

You know you want to.
