@plugh1 sounds like Renbourn...saw him at the QEH around this time, a bit earlier, Lady and the Unicorn period, started Lady Nothynge, fluffed it, laughed and started again ~ huge applause for that...

Effectivement quand j'ai commencé à jouer sur des cordes métal,j'ai compris ma douleur!

Merci encore. Je suis d'accord à propos des "tirés", mais je préfère jeu avec des cordes nylon.

Ca sonne bien avec des cordes nylon, mais les "tirés"
(Bends)font moins d'effet. Cette piéce est difficile.
Vive John Renbourn !Bravo.

Nicely done ~ always considered this one of JR's most dextrous pieces when he was at his technical zenith

@doubleotwentyone Thanks and agreed. Interesting comment in the music notes - 'Take this one fairly fast and not at all seriously'!

I think I had the same book out of the library once. I didn't have a clue how to read music so learned the basics and picked out each tune note by note very slowly. By the end of the book, I was able to sight read and from there took up classical guitar seriously. Now I'm playing Bach. Taking that book out of the library was the best decision I ever made!

Great story and good to know JR was inspirational and enough of an influnce to get you to learn standard notation. I struggled with std notation for some time but was relieved when more tab became available - didn't have your stamina :-). Tab though was the form for lute music originally so it's a pretty old notation. Ironically JRs book has a 1 page copy of original lute music in tab form.

Wow! I haven't heard this piece in years! Really brings back memories. I worked this piece up off of the original album many years ago. Thanks for posting. Where can I get the music to this?? Would love to work it up again. Thanks. -Derek

Thanks for the comments! There are a couple of other versions on YouTube also. I got the music years ago in the UK from a book by JR published by Oak Publications (standard notation). It's also available on an instructional DVD by JR called the Jazz Tinge. I think the tab is on the DVD itself.
