Dougie MacLean. Talking With My Farther

[dmann54]

no doubt, that is Dougie's foot tapping....have seen him many times and his feet are always tapping....can't wait to see him again in April...

These a great video's accept for the annoying person who thinks he's a metronome 

[dropover]

@agingwithgrace I'm pretty sure the annoying metronome is Dougie himself.

[jaffajules]

@agingwithgrace that 'annoying metronome' is definitely Dougie himself - i've seen him live and he does tap his foot along to every song

It is indeed in Open C tuning.

Nice song to play :)

[MeyerVW]

I'm working on the song right now, and can verify that it is open C tuning (CGCGCE) capoed up four.

Thanks for uploading these. Love this legend and really appreciated being able to watch these

[stringman63]

@4lime8 hi not sure about this one but he favours an open c tuning from 6th string c g c g c e eg caledonia with capo on 4th fret hope this helps love the guy a true legend

[denisgvs]

Beautiful guitar and very moving, warm tears...

Can anyone give the open tuning Dougie is playing on?

Love

[Sunambra]

Fantastic song this guy is a legend

Thanks for uploading this lovely rendition of one of my favourite Dougie MacLean Songs. I just spent nine days at The Perthshire Amber Festival where we had wall to wall Dougie, but this simple solo version rings out more sincerely in some ways. Andy Hall, a fine Scottish Photographer, had an exhibition of his framed photos at Pitlochry Festival Hall and one lovely one was of Dougie with his Father and a verse from this song written beneath it.
