Liner Notes:
First off, thanks for watching this; have you also seen my cover of "Tuesday Afternoon" with Jeff Hall? • Tuesday Afternoon (aco...
This one is for my mom, because it's one of her favorites. I've been singing this one for literally decades, so it's nice to get a chance to record it. Sterling and I performed this song on our recent European dates, so it was fresh in our minds. Everything you're hearing in this recording happened in real time. I was playing the stomp (that kick drum sound you hear) with my left foot, and triggering the guitar synth (the synth string sounds you hear) with my right. If you look closely, you'll see the patch I used on my Roland GR-55 guitar synth I had named "Space Oddity", because it's my mellotron-ish string patch that I usually use for that song when I perform it live.
Thanks to Sterling for joining me on this. He still lives in Salt Lake City, and I'm in Denver now, so we try to get together and record whenever he comes to Denver for work.
My guitar synthesizer is a Roland GR-55.
Thanks to Wild Dog Stomp pedals out of Australia for providing the awesome stomp. It worked really well on this song. Here's my model: www.wilddogstomp.com/products...
And a big thanks to you for listening/watching, and for helping spread the music.
-Mike

At 64, and having had a lifetime of music...once a singer, still an acoustic guitar player, and bass player: Nights in White Satin is one of my very favorite all-time songs. So...that cover, bass and guitar and two amazing voices...is one of the best covers I've ever heard. I thank you from my very depths.
You can still have your own cover Sir, sure you still can!🎉
I feel the same, probably the best version I have heard of this song. I'm 63 and remember how great was the original version. Hard to improve on perfection.
I’m also 64, and I fully agree with you.👍🏻
Are you freaking kidding me with that vocal solo!???!!!? Incredible.
It’s just so breathtakingly surreal. Mike and Sterling can transport you to another dimension. ❤🎸🎼 True talent.
Lucky it’s here forever so we can appreciate it, ✌
Best cover of this song I’ve seen
Sterling, dude! You are hitting some gorgeous high notes with this song! You guys make the perfect duo. Can't wait for more.
My god !!! this is incredible. This is not just a simple "cover" it's so complete and awe inspiring. Two guys??? are you kidding me ??? words escape me....
You know it’s quality when you can’t take your eyes off the guy on the left when Mike is smashing it as always
Absolute perfect pitch. A rare ability has found a home. Brother, you’re awesome!👏
Goosebumps. Fantastic and emotional !
How do you not have a million subscribers? Best covers on youtube! Bravo!
Yes - Best covers Ive ever heard.
because they are all watching shitty cardi b vids
Best covers by far
God I wish I could hear you guys play this somewhere with a bon fire in the middle of a night. That would be so friggin soothing.
GOOD GOD - those high notes!
I immediately went back to 1970 and all the feelings of being 20, thank you.
this is a real emotional song for me. I play the flute. My dad who is a farmer with no musical education whatsoever ask me once when I was 8, just starting playing the flute: "can you play that part?" and I managed (after practice!!). well it brings back memeories thank you so much guys :D
I don’t know what it is about these performances, But they are just enjoy to listen to and watch. I’ve been going through some very difficult changes in my life recently and I find myself just searching through the list and watching your performances again and again. Very comforting to me, sacred stuff. Thank you, and everyone you perform with
Thank you for sharing that, Erik. I'm glad the music is comforting. Hang in there. Things will get better.
Erik…listen as often as you need to. ❤️ The world is a hard place right now and Mike provides a beautiful, distracting soundtrack. I love this and More Than A Feeling more than anything, the total joy and energy in the performance lets me know the world is a good place for as long as I want it to be. Be well and happy ❤️✌️
One of my favorite songs as a teen. Possibly the best cover i have ever heard. WOW..hauntingly beautiful.
As I have come to expect from you, absolutely STUNNING. You and Sterling absolutely killed every part of this. The way you sung the flute solo, the banshee like wail from Sterling, the amazing guitar and baas work from you both, it's an absolute masterpiece.
I also really love Sterlings facial expressions when he sings. It adds a lot to the video knowing how absolutely into it he is.
JordanVailo I second that
@@remgrbeyond0982 fantastic
That was amazing ! The Moody Blues need to see this! The arrangement is great - just two instruments and two voices and the sound is so full that nothing is missed!
That was outrageous. Sterling backing was immense. As good as Jeff on Black Peter.
Freaking awesome. Vocal just like the record. Same timbre, inflection, growl, spacing, crying . Just the way I like it. TRUE!
Full range voices filling the void of instruments. Absolutely brilliant Mike & Sterling
Jesus Effin Cristo! Insanely beautiful and moving ~
I would honestly give everything I own to have talent like that.
Omg that back up singer at the chorus gave me mega goosebumps at the Chorus....... wow.....
Mike. These sounds have been fading away for a while. Thanks so much for preserving them in almost their original form. Brilliant co-performance by Sterling Cottam. My salute!
NAILED.IT...BOTH.OF.YOU.
How does this not have more views ? Still incredible
Greatest. Cover. Ever.
Thank you for an excellent cover of a really great song. Mike, you have Justin's vocal mannerisms down without being a mimic. Also, the vocal on the musical interlude was well done. Sterling's ability to cover the rest of the vocals, along with playing a bang on bass, helped make this cover unique and sonically superb.
I'm in love with your version❤
Close your eyes and it's the Moodys!!!
That vibrato...oh my soul. Just break my heart and heal it again with that vibrato alone.
Bang on 👍❤️
Chills!!!!! I mean Chills. Nailed it. You can feel the raw, deep, powerfulness of this song!
Absolutely phenomenal version
I'm old, have loved this song forever. You sang it beautifully. OMG chills and tears. Don't ever stop singing!
Wow. I'm speechless. The best cover.
WHOH !!! That is shockingly good. I’m in awe !!!!
Mike, great as always! But dude...Sterling! That guy has some serious range!
Agreed! Watch this and his Elvis back to back to fully appreciate it. 👍
On that video we can appreciate your long hair as well, Mike :)
Or what was left of it, yes ;)
Several pounds ago to. Now you just look 'sick' ;)
I like to think I look healthier, because I am. :)
Vocal magic.
This made the hair on my head and neck stand up--so ethereal and fleeting and oh so beautiful-- and then the smile and giggle at the end. Sublime perfection. Well done gentlemen.
SENSATIONAL!!! NO WORDS.
Jesus Pete....every performance I watch is amazing. You both have absolutely amazing harmonies together. There are no words to describe how good you are.
Brilliant!
How Mike comes from the highest note down to the final verse in an instant is beyond me. It's great to find a channel you last checked out almost a decade ago and have all that's in between to catch up on.
My god again. Absolutely marvellous.
Wow that's an amazing live duet cover of this song.
My only regret is having but one like to give this video.
Breathtaking
OMG! HOW BEAUTIFUL!
This song always makes me reflect on my life for the last 60 years.... Great job.....
A very different and very pleasent voice. WOW
Mike you are killing it. You and Sterling make the perfect group
You're simply the best! 👏👏👏
This might be one of the very best videos on UA-cam. Hats of to you mate. Tremendous cover of a tremendous song.
Gents..... you are amazing. Like so many others I do not understand why you guys are not signed. You are simply the best.
From Wouter in Cape Town South Africa.

Wooowww!!! Great!!!! Oh I love it!
I love this song
That was unbelievable. Great duo. +1
Excellant and Im fussy about covers of my fav band The Moody Blues and Justin Hayward and you nailed it here...If you dont get that first note on this song you'll never get it at all and you got it 100% love the voice replacing the flute interlude and your treble notes are awesome, this is a very fine performance and Im sure the band would approve of it indeed...a big applause well done you. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 💕🎶🎵
Beautiful Mike!!!!!!
Unreal
Just want you to know that I’ve been listening to you from the start, and I always come straight to your channel when I’m stressed and need to put my mind at ease. You’re truly a god send
What vocal control - both of you...well done!
One of my all time favorites... Sung so well...Back ups managed so well with vocals.
They are the perfect duo. Bravo!
