GuruPrem writes: A friend of mine and fellow guitar player Jamison Forkenbrock, suggested I record a cover of George Harrison’s classic song “My Sweet Lord”. At first I thought that was a pointless endeavor because why mess with a classic. However after a deeper consideration I decided to take it on and I gave myself permission to make some changes to the original. I decided to use different mantras and an overall different feel. All I can say is I think George might enjoy this update to a fifty year old classic.
