British rock band Bad Touch has recorded a heartfelt cover of The Marshall Tucker Band’s signature song ‘Can’t You See’ that has just been released as a single.
Vocalist Stevie Westwood said, ‘It’s such a great song, both the original and the Black Stone Cherry versions are out of this world. We hope that our one stands up with them, it was a lot of fun to do.” Released ahead of their November 2021 tour, Bad Touch were one of the first bands to enter the new state-of-the-art Marshall Studio recording studio.
The Marshall Studio is a state-of-the-art recording facility located at Marshall Amplification’s global headquarters in Bletchley, Buckinghamshire built around a 70s Neve 8048, heavily modified and customised for Marshall by Neve specialist Blake Devitt.
The Bad Touch single was produced by Chris Sheldon, renowned for his work with The Foo Fighters, Gun and Feeder, and it was an amazing opportunity they couldn’t afford to take up, according to Westwood.
“After such an awful 18 months for the music business, to be invited to such a space was a real gift,” he remarked. “We thank Chris for making the songs sound interstellar.”
