Very nice, Dart! I like the whole production.
I haven't heard the original, so can't comment that aspect.
Cheers, Rezi. Ryan Adams is a great song writer! Should be putting up our version of Darel Scott's River Take Me, soon, which is an even better song. We're trying to cover semi-obscure songs rather than the usual suspects (whatever they are!).
The fun will really begin when band members want to start writing their own - in my experience that often ends in tears (and less gigs!).

Re: Let It Ride
Yeah, in cover band I was years back made a point of not covering the usual stuff, and not be faithful to any genre - play it with your own sound.
We did Walking in the Shadow of the Blues and Call of the Wild from the Purple family. Can't remember if there were others. Otherwise, it was whatever, from Carole King to the Ramones. It was all about finding songs we agreed to try out and then search for an arrangement!
