American Pie (Don McLean cover; short version)
As mentioned previously, Mark has always had an unhealthy obsession with death, as has Don McLean, who's life has been overshadowed by death from the age of 15 (when he lost his father shortly after having a premonition about losing his father).
Mark Katsouros performs a cover of the song, American Pie (ruclips.net/video/iX_TFkut1PM/видео.html), by Don McLean. This was another particularly challenging song due to both its sheer length and some of the higher-pitched vocals. Yet another (pedestrian/rough) first stab, particularly some of the vocals (which are at the very tippy top of Mark's range, as one can easily hear 🙂), with hopes of performing a better, subsequent version (of at least s...

Love Me Like a Soldier (Darden Smith cover)
Просмотров 74Месяц назад
Mark Katsouros performs the Darden Smith song, Love Me Like a Soldier (ruclips.net/video/AgP83DSZQn0/видео.html). Another quick "live recording,” this one of a more obscure song Mark has long admired. In fact, he couldn’t even find the lyrics online, much less the chords/tab, so he transcribed and arranged by ear. He’s not a big fan of Bm chords, of which there seemed to be many, so this arrang...
Rocket Man (Elton John cover)

Mark Katsouros performs the Elton John song, Rocket Man (ruclips.net/video/DtVBCG6ThDk/видео.html). Just a quick "live recording” (and a couple of added sound effects), which definitely tested Mark's vocal gymnastics (as in a toddler at a trampoline gym vs. an actual gymnast 🤣). Anyhoo, he supposes it's not horrible. Or maybe it is. Either way, he loves those one-finger 7th and 9th chords. 🙂 Ma...

Mark Katsouros (acoustic guitar and vocals) & the Eagles (electric / pedal steel guitar, BVs, drums, and bass) perform the Eagles song, Peaceful Easy Feeling (ruclips.net/video/n-0lRkuNyj0/видео.html), written by Jack Tempchin. Mark adapted the song a bit, modifying some of the chords and making a few other minor tweaks. Yet another (pedestrian) stab, with hopes of performing a better, subseque...

Mark adapted the song a bit, modifying some of the chords and making a few other minor tweaks. Yet another (pedestrian) first stab, with hopes of performing a better, subsequent ...
Green Brooms / The Humours of Kill Clougher (Danú song)

While still recovering from his trip to Ireland (ruclips.net/video/V_ndGJALR98/видео.html), Mark Katsouros figured he'd mess around with a cool Celtic tune (with some interesting time signature shifts)-the Irish band Danú's Green Brooms / The Humours of Kill Clougher (ruclips.net/video/L27iATDzFd0/видео.html). Mark's on acoustic guitar, and Danú is covering fiddle, vocals, and Bodhrán (Irish f...
Which Light (Francesco song)

Mark loved the vibe of this song the very first time he heard it, and knew he wanted to cover it. Mark Katsouros & Friends (all delineated below) perform the Francesco song, Which Light (ruclips.net/video/1h8Fn1DbC4c/видео.html). Mark approximated the chords and added a bit of his own rhythmic twist to the song. He really likes the way the mix is coming out, but hopes to keep adding his own add...

Dizzy (vocals) & Mark Katsouros (acoustic/rhythm guitar), & additionally Alex Spencer (electric guitar / harmonics) & Lucas Martinez (drums), perform the Dizzy song, Pirouette (ruclips.net/video/3U4BFIYkBKk/видео.html), which Mark thinks rivals John Lennon's "Imagine." Another song on which Mark just loves Katie's vocals (and the band's BVs), so he hopes she doesn't (/ they don't) mind him util...
What a Wonderful World (Louis Armstrong cover)

Mark Katsouros performs a cover of Louis Armstrong's song, What a Wonderful World (ruclips.net/video/A8eedATINwQ/видео.html). Mark came up with his own unique guitar arrangement for it, and mixed in a cameo audio appearance (intro speech) by Louie ("Pops") himself. Yet another (pedestrian) first stab, with hopes of performing a better, subsequent version in the not-too-distant future.

Mark Katsouros performs a cover of the song, Long Train Runnin' (ruclips.net/video/CVsLEI-hCXw/видео.html), by The Doobie Brothers. While some of the seventh chords may be easy chords to play, the rhythm of this song was hard to maintain while singing. (Would have been a lot easier to record the guitar and vocals separately, but where’s the fun in that?) So please listen with a forgiving ear. 🙂...

I love this music ❤
WoW!!!!
Great interpretation. Enjoyed it. Thank you Mark. 😊👍
thanks Mark, very cool
wow i just fall inlove.
Might this be of some assistance - it's a performance of this song where Cory Tetford accompanies Alan on guitar: ruclips.net/video/YCsLjDpAOhc/видео.htmlsi=0NOcjDuYF-mFnGmr
(Alan being Alan, there's a rather long intro - song begins about 7.7 minutes in. And BTW Cory was actually sitting in the audience at this Songwriters' Circle. Alan asked him to come up and do the accompaniment on the spot.)
Thanks for sharing, @@BetweenTheRock! Assistive indeed, and awesome. 🙂
You are very talented man nice
Nice job! Sounds great.
Appreciate your drumming, brother!
@@KatsourosTube Thanks! I’ve got a few other Dizzy covers on my channel where I’ve added my own interpretations. Check them out when you get a chance.
I'll definitely check them out. Great to meet another Dizzy fan! Besides Pirouette, I've done a bunch of Dizzy covers myself (most of which are pretty pedestrian, honestly).
