"Baby It's Up to You" America (cover)

Музыка

A song from America's fourth album, Holiday, released in 1974. The album produced two hit singles, Tin Man, and "Lonely People." This song, written by Gerry Beckley, was never released as a single. If it had, I'd bet that it would have been a hit too.

    Beautiful, John! Great song from a great album, for sure. I love your new Gretsch bass! Lots of nice weapons in your music making arsenal. Great job on the song, as usual! Thanks! Jim

    Thanks, Jim! So glad that you liked it! The bass is my new Gretsch G2220 Junior Jet Bass II. It's a short scale bass that's more the size of a guitar, and I think it's great for people like me who are used to playing guitar. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment! I appreciate it! John

    It’d be hard doing a live show, but otherwise I think you could give America a run for its money. Great cover!

    They took the CSN and sometimes Y formula and ran with it, and, in my opinion, brought it to a new level. Their music never gets old to me. Thanks for the kind words, Cat! John

    Hey John....really nice. Just a nice simple sounding strumming and harmonies tune. It's so great to still have this kind of stuff that works so well without needing all of that overproduction and modern digital trickery. You do have "America" dialed in nice.👍

    Thanks so much for checking this out, Enrique! I'm so glad that you liked my attempt at this great Gerry Beckley tune! Yes, the 12 string is a 1972 Martin D12-20 that I bought used in 1973. If you look at some of the old videos and photos of Dan Peek, he played one just like it when he was in America. Hope you and yours are doing well, my friend! John

    @@jrsn2music Yes, I saw him playing that guitar!. You are so lucky for having a Martin. I love how it sounds. One of my dreams is to play a Martin D 45 for once in my life.!!! Best wishes for you and your family!
