- Here's my cover of Jefferson Starship's "Find Your Way Back," from their Modern Times album, released in 1981. I don't own anything about the song. I have always loved this late-70's to early 80's era of Jefferson Starship and this song especially.
I started recording it and making the video several years ago, but the video got too big for my computer to handle (couldn't even preview!). After upgrading to a new system, I dug up the video files, and re-assembled everything.
Hope you like it!
Vocals have Cathy Richardson a run for her money
Amazing talent
Thank you
Great song choice 👍
I don't think she has to work nearly as hard as I did to hit those notes! :)
Thanks for listening. Much appreciated.
Fantastic!!
Thanks!
That was incredible. Great job.
Thank you very much!
BADD A$$ Dave 👍😎🐰🇺🇸

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🐰😎
:)
Nice job!
Thanks!
Very well-done!
Hey, thanks!
Very nice! Did you sequence the synth arpeggios? Just curious, because Craig is credited with that on the album, even though he was the lead guitarist.
Thanks!
Interesting, I didn't know they were using sequencers that early (I know arpeggiators were around). The original recording tempo slides around a bit, so it would have been hard to lock a sequencer to it (but who knows how that all worked back then). :)
To answer your question, I mentioned that synth part to a real keyboard-playing acquaintance of mine, because I was a little stuck on it (I'm just a guitarist who plays some very basic piano chords). He figured out the note sequence for me, and gave me a MIDI file that he made from it. For the recording, I only did the basic piano and organ parts.
Holy Fuck was that AWSOME!!!!. This song has been on my jogging Playlist for 10 years......Now this version will replace it for the next 10. You guys NAILED a very hard song to sing. I have loved this song for so long and you gave the song more power than the original and I am so grateful to have come across this. WELL DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, I sure appreciate the kind words. Thank you!
This is one of my favorite Starship songs - NOT an easy song to sing, which is why you don't hear local cover bands trying this! Kudos, Dave! Sounds great. :-)
Mickey Thomas' incredible vocals are no easy task for anyone. This was really challenging! Even higher-- Grace Slick's soprano backing vocals. :)
This is fantastic. I've been busting out this song the past month or so, at home on my own, I am not an octopus, so I can't do the 12-string parts and electric at the same time,
LOL, though I have six guitars here including a 12-string. Nor do I have a double neck SG. I would love one though! Anyway, singing along is fun but god Mickey's
vocal range and power is hard to get near. It might help to invest in a good mic for myself and run that through a small amp.
Thanks for listening!
Yeah, I think the only way to perform it live is with multiple guitarists. Maybe it might be possible with a doubleneck, or an acoustic on a stand... but also with two more guitarists. Hahah.
Mickey's vocal is definitely hard to reach. Grace's soprano harmonies are even higher! Those just about killed me. :)
@@davideberhardt2368 Right, it takes a whole band to really do it justice. And someone with golden pipes and power.
One of my favorite songs of all time. Great job
Thanks, much appreciated!
wow! you guys really crank.....great cover
Thanks so much!
Daaaaaang David Eberhardt!! You nailed it!
Thanks for the kind words. Much appreciated!
Awesome
Thank you!
Dude, that is the best cover Ive heard. Well done maestro!
Wow, thanks!
Great talent
You're too kind. Thanks!
I loved it!
Thanks, glad to hear it!
Solid effort - not easy to replicate Micky’s vocal range and you nailed it!
Thanks man, much appreciated!
Do you know, David, if they used a harmonizer or octavizer for some of the solos? It sounds like it to me, although they had like 3 guitarists in the band by then.
I think there's either a terrible fuzzy guitar in there, or a synthesizer, or both. It was before the age of intelligent harmonizers, so I think someone really played it.
@@davideberhardt2368 I see. Supposedly Tom Scholz of Boston built his own amps and FX etc., and one of those was some kind of harmonizer box.
Interesting. I hadn't heard that. I know that Les Paul built some kind of looper long before digital loopers were available. Those guys are way smarted than I am!
@@davideberhardt2368 I'm not sure when he built it, but it was one of his huge line of Rockman guitar rack FX boxes etc. for years. I think he had that way back in 1977 to 79 or so, in their heyday. Scholz was a total gear genius, building all his own custom stuff. Crazy. That's what you can do with a MIT engineering degree! LOL That Les Paul thing is even nuttier, given how early he must've built it.
Totally Awesome!!!
You Rock 👍👍👍
Thanks for the encouraging words!
