OK, it's only on the R channel @ I only put in the L earbud (never use the crappy laptop speakers)...
Yes, you have got the hang of that one...recording mic is overdriven, so tricky to assess "tone"...perhaps back the amp and/or recording level off a little, remember it only has to be loud enough to be picked up by the mic. But sounds like a solid attempt, playing-wise.

OMG!! that Masco is awesome...what mic are u using? And compliments on your tone and timing...nice. The recent version is nice'r... Is that a crystal? ---------- Why is it that we all just can't get along?<
@Philippe,Sorry after listening back i can tell you are TBing. I only had a quick chance to check it on my phone at work, sorry about that.
For me i think your tone just needs fattening up a little bit. Otherwise you do the song justice very well:o)
You said that you recently went 'amped' and you were using a cheap PC mic. That might be the problem there, i'd like to here you play it through a decent harp mic.
Much better than the first take...took your eye off the ball a little at 0:54 but overall pretty solid. If your 6" speaker amp has no adjustment to the tone controls, that might be a limiting factor. Mix up your wahs, BW had lots of little tricks there & huge hands, try wah'ing from the heels of your hands as well as opening the palm with/from the fingers.
Like a lot of Horton's instrumentals, its a track that you can keep learning from for years, as your playing develops.
