Using a capo with the blues is a cool idea then you get to pull off from two positions and easily play modes too, G phrygian i think. Can;t get the thumbstrokes at the same time, thats skill
In the new "Guitar Player" magazine, he says he has 3 or 4 "phantom tunings" - meaning they're secret. He's playing in C with a 3rd fret capo, and from his fingers I'd guess it's a A9th tuning (no 3rd) - try EAEABE low to high.
this one is in standard as far as i can tell, but he will usually tune his low e up to g like his father did. with the capo at the third fret, this puts a lot of the songs in Bb.
Muziek heeft alles te maken met zelfvertrouwen. En dat klinkt hier door in elke snaar, in de keuze voor het geluid, de eenvoud van het rif, de blik van Vieux Farka Toure. Wat een power.

Yea sure, vieux farka touré spent 20 hours in a plane just to tell a few buttoned teens from kentucky about the dangers of a disease that doesn't even exist in their country. thumbs up. next time try to make your lie sound a little more real - that's what lying is all about.
BAMAKO, 8 March 2007 (IRIN) - With three months to go before the rainy season triggers Malis annual malaria epidemic, the government and international public health donors have kicked off an unprecedented anti-malaria campaign targeting children and pregnant women.
There are 800,000 cases of malaria among Malis 11.7 million people every year, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO). But Malis Health Ministry estimates the number of cases is closer to two million.
vieux came to my school on oct. 16 and i met him and everything and talked to my class about malaria. he performed and i got to go up on stage and play his rythym guitarists guitar. it was really cool.

add a bit of percussion and you get outstanding music...
but still excellent play!

@seyoumeye:
It needs NO percussion because it is already outstanding music.
He is only jamming in the video - you should listen to his albums, especially 'Fondo'.
