She Moved Through The Fair - traditional, arr. Bert Jansch (cover)

[glaoud]

Je viens juste de voir la version de Jansch et j'aime bien la tienne que j'avais déjà commentée et qui utilise les mêmes accords semble t'il . Quel en est le tuning ?

J.C.

[LiteGauge]

@glaoud Merci, J.C. Ici j'utilise Open G, c'est assez proche de la version de Bert Jansch, mais je pense maintenant qu'il est en standard. Je ne suis pas absolument certain mais je crois que Bert n'utilise que standard et dropped D avec de temps en temps des morceaux en DADGAD (Go Your Way, The First Time Ever et St Fiacre)

John

[glaoud]

@LiteGauge Merci John. Il est vrai que Bert n'utilise que les accordages que tu cites ,en tout cas le tien rend bien .J.C.

[MsAndi63]

Composition and your interpretation of it strike gentle chords with my heart! Love this song for a long time! Great upload!

[LiteGauge]

@MsAndi63 Thanks very much :o)

[Absraction]

Awesome! I've been playing this a lot lately. Bert plays it in standard tuning fyi, with a capo at the second or third (he seems to mix it up).

[MAXlMUS66]

Great version fella......have you got the tabs you use?

[LiteGauge]

@MAXlMUS66 Sorry, but I don't use tabs. If you google "Jansch Moved through Fair tabs", you should find tabs that you can adapt quite easy - raise anything of top string by 2 frets, raise anything on the 6th or 5th strings by 2 frets, due to change of tuning.

Hey John how are you?,

One of my favorites & one of your best covers John ! i see you got a new guitar, it sounds good what brand is it ?, I LIKE ! ;)

Cheers,

Jesse.

[LiteGauge]

@JesseMathews Cheers, Jesse. It's a Boucher Native Goose OM - Canadian job. Very nice little guitar. These strings are a couple of months old and yet she still sounds bright.

[JesseMathews]

@LiteGauge nice guitar i checked it out on the website looks like a killer for fingerpicking and all solid too with red spruce top which is considered the best classic top wood for a guitar but it takes longer to "open up" because its slightly harder then sitka spurce top... i would like to hear that baby in 5 or 10 years :)

I just tried to leave a comment and it wouldn,t let me....

[electricragtime]

A beautiful arrangement John....and the tuning works incredibly well... I actually remember seeing jansch in nottingham years ago and he played a couple of things in an open G .....If I remember correctly I think one of them was running from home.... I know I normally play this in DADGAD ...but I like your version better (much more melodic)....Kev

[LiteGauge]

@electricragtime Thanks very much, Kev. I've always associated Bert with Dropped D, Standard or DADGAD.
