This was enough to fav.....

Why thank you :)

Interesting, diggin' the country vibe. This'd be perfect for sitting round a campfire, just jamming. I can picture this sung by Randy Travis, for reasons I cannot explain.

I am a little bit country :)

Wonderful pieces.This sounds like the tuning Richie Havans uses. Is it a open D tuning. I like it, it' s so melodic.

It is actually an open D tuning withought a 3rd. So it is naturally a D 5 ( D & A) the perfect tuning for punk
Richie Havens probably used this one quite a bit as did a lot of others of the same era. I picked it up from being inspired by Stephen Stills.

Really? I never knew punk bands used this tuning. Then again I don' t listen to punk.

Yes, Richie Havens uses this type of tuning a lot. A good example I think is a song Here comes the sun from Woodstock (I haven' t heard it for a long time, so I'm not sure).

Haven' t heard of Stephen Stills. Will look him up.

Man, I have a guitar permanently tuned to this now and I sit around jamming on old nirvana tunes all the time because it only requires laying your finger down strait across the frets. For the most part punk uses purely 5 Chords because they lack the 3rd that would otherwise give things Minore, Major or a diminished quality and thereby making it stupidly easy to create a harmony. If you don't have to worry about that 3rd you never hit a chord that is out of place. This of corse only aplies if you are only using the method of playing with one finger though :) If you want to you can really do amazing things with this tuning. It have been used by Paul Simon, Nick Drake, Stephen Stills and A whole bunch of other musicians in the 60's folk revival.

All of those musicians are great. Really liked Simon & Garfunkel's Richard Cory song. Nick Drake sings as high as Robert Ernest (Bob Hite) from Canned Heat did. Great musicians. And of course your covers are also great. You' ve got a great voice.

I liked it too...

Ahahahahahah ! I didn't remember you were so good I definitely have to take the time, one day, to hear your whole gallery

I feel it'sz yesterday I first heard your song "I feel Cold". Is it me, or your voice evolved since then?

I've had my old Ibanez acoustic in open Eb (Eb Ab Eb Eb Ab Eb) for ages x3. It's so much fun playing with open tunings, and even better when you have a guitar that you can dedicate to it, else you'll break a ton of strings >>.
