"Don't Go Away"

Backdated, archival post

---&---


I knew I'd done a version of "Don't Go Away," but I hadn't realized how long ago it was (June 2013).  Since then I've learned that it's actually on twelve-string guitar and that there's a third vocal phrase at the end that I'd been oblivious to.

I still don't think my voice is particularly suited to this (it's too low for a lot of the Zombies catalogue), but this is better than the previous version I did.  I actually did the backing vocals this time (although I guessed at a few harmonies), and I got to use my tambourine again.
