Angels Castles Covers by Vance Gilbert

I believe that, shortly after seeing him live at Musikfest, I mentioned before that I preferred Vance Gilbert's rendition of Castles Made of Sand more than the Hendrix original, which is fairly high praise.

As the last word of the title indicates, this is a collection of predominantly R&B cover tunes, each with little notes on why Vance selected the song.

As the middle word of the title implies, Vance's arrangement of Castles Made of Sand is on here, which is why I selected this.

Most of the arrangements are fairly simple, some down to the way he performs live: just a guitar and his voice.
