Jeffstunes progress on Youtube

Well, it's almost a year on Youtube now, and I've been thinking about what I've achieved so far. In my opinion, not very much. In relation to lots of others, the Youtube progress is probably quite good, but not as far as my aspirations are concerned.

A good few people were telling me that my vocal tone was quite similar to Neil Diamonds, and were eager to hear more, so I decided to do another one of his. This was the third on of his I recorded on Youtube. I was more pleased with this one myself, because of the improvement in my sound setup.

This was the final video where my sound setup was of a poor quality. So this one is quiet, like the others.
