Here is my instrumental cover of the song "Can't Help Falling in Love" which was a hit single for Elvis Presley in 1962. It appeared in his 1961 film "Blue Hawaii" and was written by Hugo Peretti, Luigi Creatore, and George David Weiss. It went to Number 2 on the US Charts and was a Number 1 hit in the UK. It was also famously covered in 1993 by UB40. On this one, I played my Fender Stratocaster (Bridge Pickup) and a Zoom G2.1Nu unit programmed with Charlie Hall's EFTP (Echoes From The Past [Patch B2]). I recorded to my laptop via USB and used Cubase for recording/mixing. Special thanks must go to Lars G. Vinger of The Marvingers for his excellent tablature and for sending me the backing track, Hope you enjoy my version of this classic track

Feb 22, 2012 - Hi Brian! Thank you so much for your very kind words and am glad you enjoyed my rendition. Was nice to play this as I hadn't done an Elvis track before. I think this echo sound fits best as it does have a strength to it but with gentle phrasing, it makes the track come alive. More tunes will be coming soon :) Best Wishes Chris

Feb 23, 2012 - Hi Chris, a very nice version here, played with lots of feeling. A good choice of echo and nice work with the volume pedal. A nice bt from Lars too. Reading your notes on the info, you have spurred me on to have a go at the UB40 version. I'll have to have a go at making the bt. Cheers, Graham
