This was my dad's favorite song. He had the 45 by Roy Orbison and would play it over and over. He passed away when I was 12. Thank you for a beautiful cover of this song! Loved it! 👍😀🙏

[DrummerKeithScott]

Great choice. I did this for my mom when she passed a year ago. She always sung it around the house when she did housework. Your version sounds amazing.

[iorijones]

One of my favourites singers from the 70’s, along with Jackson Browne, Eagles and Bonnie Raitt.
Like the electronic drum head accents.
Beautifully played Earl.
Enjoy your Saturday!

[drumman]

Right on point Earl! I liked how you added in the electronics too.

Earl, opening the hihat on the 3 for a 1/4 note duration really give the groove a beautiful lilt and then coming in with the syndrum is the crowning glory

[filppocadeddu]

L'ikee 10 for this performance 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌😎 Nice Work My friend 🤘 Have a Great weekend 🙏🙏🙏

[gregwonhoff]

So tastefully done, Earl, and the electric toms are so cool, and as usual, your tom work is impeccable. What a cool ending too.Thank you for being here every morning when I get up

[ZaxDrumsandGolf]

Nice use of the e-drums!! It all sounds really good and your drumming was awesome as always!!

[jessicagreene]

Great playing Earl. This is the kind of song I find hard to play as I have to keep the idea in my head to not hit a crash cymbal at the end of the bar.

[eddiebirkett]

i used the old syndrum on the boo boo sound, worked with a great singer Ronda Hart, she could sing this good, nice track Earl !

[paco_drums]

Fantastic cover, Earl... awesome drumming and very well job, my friend !!! 😎🙋🏻‍♂🥁

[Alexaraeemusic]

Thanks for helping me learn this song! Love the electric toms

[mickeyf]

Very nice Earl! Love the edrums!
Hey, if I removed my resonant heads from my toms, would I essentially have concert sounding toms or just toms without bottom heads? Thanks

[Adam-hsft]

Hey, Earl- great cover of a great song.

What kind of drum groove would you consider this? I'm a singer-songwriter and am currently working on a demo for a song with a similar feel, but have been racking my brain trying to nail down the right groove with samples.

Hell yeah, there’s a fun cover of this by Phish sung by drummer Fishman. On Spotify it’s a sound check
