@daisysaint

[Mariekesone]

Drop jaw and D Beautiful...:-)

[chrille55555]

@daisysaint It´s definately DADGAD.

[DavidPileGuitar]

@chrille55555 drop D actually 

[omgzitsmilk]

well im no guitar player or a string player for that matter but musically, this is amazing

[Mandotwang]

Maybe the tuning is double-drop-D and he is using a flatpick and his fingers.

@daisysaint

[blackbelt0511]

@daisysaint when he teaches this he does it in just a drop d

[MrGuitarDavid]

this is by far my favourite of his music

[blackbelt0511]

[pcheeseman1957]

sounds like dropped d to me.the sixth string tuned down a tone and the rest in standard.

[Xerxes4242]

It's my pleasure to share this excellent music with others, and only hope they can gain from it a fraction of what I have! It's very refreshing to hear something like this

[tmonk76]

Are you sure this song is desert dance? If not does any one have the tabs..

thanks

[Xerxes4242]

Yes, this is Desert Dance.. and I don't imagine there will be tabs anywhere.

There is another tune called "Desert Dance" by the late Isaac Guillory, recently made available as a YT clip. Was that possibly the one you of which you were thinking?

[McMonster65]

the introduction is a tune called "the hungry hill" and Isaacs tune- Desert Dance- starts about 1.18

[spring74light]

Thank you for the info, McM! My access is old slow dialup, so my sample didn't make it as far as 1:00, then into the distinctive "Close Encounters-esque" harmonics of Guilloryland. I shall now venture farther with the Quest!

[yyuryyicicuryy4me]

I was impressed when he was 13.. I'm stunned even if he is the wrong side of 45.

[Xerxes4242]

Well, he's only 43, so I sure hope that's not the wrong side of 45!

[yyuryyicicuryy4me]

.... depends how you look at it I suppose. Whats two years between friends..

[lastnickeldrifter]

haha....some confusion here...I'm the wrongsideof45.....( 46 to be precise) and have clips of TM on my page.....cliff
