Most every musician has emulated their favorite band. And while covering songs of their favorite artists, some have done it very well. It’s rare, however, when the band supports and even endorses the remake from the fan.
But that’s exactly what happened to Marty Ray. Marty is a fan of Lynyrd Skynyrd and he also has fans for himself (His YouTube channel has over 62K subscribers). Included on his channel was an acoustic remake of “Simple Man” and it’s really good. So well done, Lynyrd Skynyrd posted his version on their own Facebook page. Now that’s a Rock N’ Roll endorsement!
Watch the listen to Marty Ray “Simple Man” below.
