Lord Mayo

(i.e. the one in Ireland, not in your fridge). An old Irish slow air as arranged by the late Davey Graham -- although my timing is quite different.

Thx Doc!

Some day I'll try to do Lord Inchiquin and maybe one of Davy's Jigs or reels in that tuning as well.

Sorry, that tuning s/b eaeDAE (1st and 4th-6th strings all standard)

[Dimwit720]

Thx! Top to bottom eaeDAD. Figured this out a few decades back off the record, fortunately the back of the record told me the tuning. I meant to go into Lord Inchiquin at the end but flubbed it so cut if off. When I get some time I'll try to record that one, and also a jig in the same tuning from the same old vinyl record.

Nicely done. This is the only version I have seen on YouTube of what I understand to be an O'Carolan tune. This is what Davy Graham called 'pipes' tuning.

Fantastic! What tuning do you have the guitar my friend?
