Branko Group: Members Posts: 36 Joined: Jan. 2005 Posted: Dec. 05 2009, 16:08 Hello, some of you may remember me by some electronic tracks I shared here. Well, recently I purchased a cheap microphone and made some simple acoustic demos. This here is one of them; a completely acoustic version of She Moves Through The Fair. I also added some vocals, which aren't that great (I'm no singer) and thus you can choose to download the vocal version, or only the acoustic backing for it (you could add your own lead instrument or vocals!). If you notice some mistakes, please bear in mind that all guitar parts were improvised (and all are first takes). SMTTF.mp3 SMTTF Instrumental.mp3 Thanks for listening! Back to top

The first version I ever heard was this one by Fairport Convention from the album What We Did On Our Holidays(1968) .There`s also a version recorded by Sinead O` Connor which was used in the film Michael Collins.I must admit though my favourite rendition is probably the one by All About Eve which you mentioned. I liked your version though Branko.I particularly liked the way the guitar parts were divided into the left and right speaker,some beautiful playing on there. Back to top
