Along the road

This is a simple version of a great song. Fogelberg has a much better voice (duh) and he adds a lot of harmony and mystical sounding strings, and he "la-la-la's" through the instrumental. I spared the listener.

I think the drums are too heavy in my version, and the tempo seems very slow without the excellent voice and background activity.

Update: I moved the tempo up a bit, and I think it sounds better. It also relieves the listener of 23 seconds in song length. You are welcome. I accomplished this, by the way, not by re-recording the song, but by using Cakewalk's audio processing capabilities. Somehow it changes the length of the song without changing the pitch. Really cool stuff.

Voices: Piano, Picked Bass, Tremelo Strings, Slow Strings, Clarinet, Drums
