Not sure there is any problem with your voice.. The guitar sounds slightly off at times, but it adds to the lo-fi atmosphere IMHO. I like the (real) tape saturation as well! I am no expert on these matters though (just know what I like). I am sure others here will be able to give excellent advice. On the subject of covers, I would be very careful. You certainly shouldn't put covers on a libre site AFAIK.. could get yourself into all sorts of trouble since you don't own the copyright. Posting that stuff on your own site, though not strictly legal, is less bad IMO, although you may still get into trouble if it becomes popular and you haven't paid the licensing fee (please correct me if I am wrong here, anyone). Oh, by the way, the libre site does not link to downloads properly on my computer (using firefox)... James
