Oh Well
Anyone else seen this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTfNINPcjU8
Im lost for words
Dull version of a true classic, totally ruined by old Widdly Morse totally soulless and predictable guitar licks
video is kinda fun though

Re: Oh Well
Great song, sadly it's a bit of a nothing version.

Re: Oh Well
Its great imho. It took me a couple of takes to get used to widdle part but its great. I had not known it before I have learned that DP will be covering it, so do not have any personal relation to original „zero”and in these circumstances I prefer DP version by large margin. The whole album is imho great. I was not familiar with the majority of songs so i do consider It even as covers. They work great as Dp tracks. Maybe pneumonia and dixie chicken are my least favourite but the album is much better then I initialy expected…

I can get that you might like it if you've never heard the original as its a fine song , but its a bloody awful version from DP with a sub par vocal and awful guitar solo.They have done nothing to improve upon the original and in fact have done nothing original with the track at all .
Early DP of course did many covers on the first 3 albums but at least tried to do something different with the tracks, this is just a complete nothing attempt IMHO
The original FM version is sublime IMHO now that you have heard it i cant understand how you could possibly prefer this poor version?but then were all different

Re: Oh Well
I especially logged to this forum after circa 5 years to reply your post .
I dont understand whats wrong with the playing there and Gillan imho sounds fantastic. I already heard originals of all tracks covered on this album so i am aware of original. Still love DP takes and do not have desire to listen to the originals. For me its just great new DP track not a cover. Sorry if I destroyed your day

Your entitled to your opinion as am i
whats wrong with the playing? nothing apart from SM widdlefest its all just a bit uninspired and pointless IMHO
No point doing a cover if your not going to add to or improve the original like early DP did.
Gillans vocal is just dull and emotionless compared to the original IMHO
destroyed my day ? what a strange thing to say ? whats wrong with you mate
still looks like i inspired you to post for the first time in 5 years all good then
BTW despite kidding yourself on its NOT a new DP track its a dull DP version of a classic FM track

Re: Oh Well
First listen of "Oh Well" was Oh Well, a bit of a missed opportunity. BUT, after watching the video a couple of times their version has grown on me, whether its a skip whilst listening to the CD is yet to be decided.
