Dude, I grew up blaring AIC on my stereo, annoying the hell out of my dad. Anytime I hear their music, I still get chills. I was never into drugs, but for some reason their music just... Got me. I understood it, and maybe it was helped along by their excellent musicianship. So I'm dead serious when I say you nailed it. You've got their essence here man. It's a hell of a job, I hope you had fun making this video.
Wow dude. Where to start here. I would first like to refer all the people who have said "This track couldn't have been played at their MTV Unplugged show, it just wouldn't have sounded right acoustic" to this stellar rendition - you have proven them utterly wrong. For a song that carries the main melody in the bass you translate everything so effortlessly into one instrument. And your Layne impression is just spot on. Those stacked vocals did the trick - they were his signature style. Just really well done man, I am so happy to have found this. Rotten Apple has so much personal meaning to me and it's wonderful to hear it given a breath of life again.
I haven't seen very many covers of Alice in Chains that I thought were good but just to me something didn't work. However I never thought that once with yours. AMAZING cover man!!!
Excellent guitar, vocals (the harmonies are beautiful), and video editing! Thanks for sharing your talents with us man. This is giving me a lot of motivation to make an updated cover, and try some of that solo guitar. Your arrangement is great.
Hey, thanks a lot for giving it a listen, glad you liked it. I actually am working on an album that I'm putting together on my own since the band I was in is no longer in existence. It's not quite done or even close to done considering I'm doing all the parts, but I'll try to post up something soon.
Thanks man... I've been a big fan of AIC since way back and was hoping not to butcher it considering their amazing harmonizing ability. I'm glad you like it though and appreciate the kind words.
BEAUTIFUL AND GUITAR PLAYING AND CREATIVE WAY TO DO THIS SONG! ARE YOU SINGING ALONG WITH LAYNES VOICE ON THIS? IM VERY CRITICAL OF COVER SONGS OF LAYNES, BUT EITHER WAY I THOUGHT THIS WAS UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING! THANK YOU 🙏💜🕊☮️💫
I did 3 vocal harmonies for the chorus and 2 for the verse, and I believe it's also the same harmony pattern on the album. Live though, it's only 2 all the way through.
Just a little delay and reverb... The song is sang with harmonies so it sounds like there is a lot of effects, but in reality there is only reverb and very little delay.
This is the best Cover i have heard of Laynes Vocals so far.
From the 1st few lyrics I knew he had it!!!
I.am. blown.away....
Thank you 🙏
This is THE BEST COVER OF THIS SONG ANYWHERE..
OUTSTANDING!!!
I agree
Wow. This is so awesome, AIC & Layne would be proud. Good job Dude!
My favourite band, not to mention my favourite song.. This acoustic cover did justice, very very nicely done.. Keep this up :)
Thank you very much!
Best cover I've heard from this song! Nailed those vocal harmonies! Good job.

This was really damn good. Pleasantly surprised.
Oh, this is just perfect! Thanks so much! I enjoyed it a lot!
The mic is called "Spark" by "Blue" (not a very expensive mic at all, but works great). Did everything using Garageband and iMovie.
Sounds pretty good! Love this song...
Amazing cover!
I've played some bass over this and it sounds really awesome!!
