Here is a cover of The Hardest Button to Button originally recorded by The White Stripes. I played this one entirely on homemade instruments. All instruments (including the foot stomper) are fed into some sort of an overdrive effect before going into the recording interface. Overdrive just seems to pair nicely with this song.

 Thanks Dave, Denbo, AD, and Derek. Your opinions mean a lot. I just thought this was a good song for homemade instruments and overdrive. :-)
