Hotel California, if it were written by Johnny Cash

Күн бұрынHotel California, if it were written by Johnny Cash.
This project has been on the shelf since April 2023, and just the other day me and my friend had time to finish recordings for it.
As you might be able to tell, this is done in Johnny's style of the later American Recordings, and more specifically in the style of 'Hurt'.
Very bare bones in terms of instrumentation. Acoustic guitar, piano, bass, electric guitar for a small interlude and bass guitar. Giving ample room for the haunting vocals to shine through, slowly building up to an almost distorted crescendo during the chorus and at the ending.
Many thanks to Stijn Bloemhof for providing the vocals.
Hope you enjoy it!

It is greatly appreciated! ❤ We also accepting donations in the form of puns like 'Hurt-el California' and 'Hotel Cashlifornia'

Be careful when covering this song. The Eagles are relentless when it comes to copyright striking.

Wow, Lazlo, what an incredible rendition of "Hotel California" in the style of Johnny Cash! The way you've captured the essence of Cash's later American Recordings, particularly reminiscent of "Hurt," is truly remarkable. The bare bones instrumentation allows for the haunting vocals to take center stage, creating a mesmerizing and atmospheric listening experience. And major props to Stijn Bloemhof for delivering such powerful vocals. Thank you for sharing this masterpiece with us, Lazlo. It's evident that a lot of heart and soul went into bringing this project to life, and the result is absolutely stunning. Can't wait to see what other musical gems you have in store for us! 🎶👏
