[bathory1234567890]

[amccann7]

[dndn1011]

@amccann7 Thank you!

[solkatify]

Yeah,..i really needed to jam this with someone,..and um..no-one was available,..so i just really rocked it out with you while i listened,..right there with ya man..what a feeling,..what a clean and hearty version!~In'Lakesh, Brother!(and thanks for the video-bandmate!);o)

[Twoosy]

Hi, I really like your version of this song (even with the standard tuning as it becomes more of a physical expression vs. altered tuning of DAFGCE or lower.) And yes, thankfully I can understand the lyrics even though I don't know what the song is really about - Hint, hint.

Blessings to you from a fellow guitar player.

[dndn1011]

@Twoosy thank you

[voru123]

go on for john....

love your time ....

greating from germany .....

[chevrotyne]

anyone have the chords of this sond please ?

[JamesCorachea]

Great cover. Most of the commenters seem to only care about recreating the original as accurately as possible, not picking up the ball and running with it! You really made it your own.

[tpmbe]

I was captivated by your performance........ your superb!

[Davetate]

Really good version. Only thing i'd suggest is, sing from the belly. You have a good voice, but its deep song and as such needs a deep booming voice.

[drysdale1979]

Wonderful video! You looked like you were in the moment and enjoying yourself! You play well and you have a jazzy voice if that makes sense!

[dndn1011]

Thanks!

[geshtasb]

nice job!

[waitisis]

Nice one, like the guitar .......... great to be able to understand the lyrics ! Well done

[PeterHope2]

i play alot of jm's songs, and tend to mess around with the tunings. i dont get all this "your playing it wrong" stuff. you're playing right, because it's your own original version, and not johns.

great cover mate :)

[urquhart891377]

Nothing compares to John! But you come the closest I've heard. Well done man, I love your voice. Keep them coming. do you do small hours?

[dndn1011]

Thanks so much. I owe a lot to JMs music

[hornth44]

You play and sing it wonderfully! You got the soul and blues. Thank you!!

[theoxwhocan]

listen man you need the tunning right!

DADFCE give that ago...Peace

[dndn1011]

It's the way I do his song... I am not going to try to be John Martyn. Let him rest in peace.

[TheReesta]

DADGCE mate

[dndn1011]

This is my own arrangement.

[plezhurhouse]

--reallly nice cover--nice playing and singing--especially covering John Martyn too--

[downanddirtydave]

played in alternate tuning or not it is a beautiful song and one i will play around with a bit.

[rainbowmonkey27]

Great cover but its played by tuning it to C ,G ,C ,F ,B flat D and just baring accross

[dndn1011]

not be me.... :) thanks anyway

[TheReesta]

I get it as DADGCE as used by John on his Live in Dublin DVD with Danny Thompson

[Morzadec]

really good. never seen a tab or anything for this one so il watch this vid and try figure it out

[vidviewer100]

[ottolangnase]

I have loved this John Martyn song for about 25 years. I find the way You "did it" very nice. Thanks for sharing.

[XxDanny88xX]
