  • This video has allowed me to learn to play this piece which my grandfather used to play for me when I was a boy in the 50's He always said this was his favorite. I have been trying for years to find the breakout notes for this song and you have provided it very very well. Thank you so much

  • hi Mr Herbert, I really like the song esp your version and av been trying for a week but still cant get it right. could you pls show me the picking pattern I cant get it its alit bit fast for me. thank you in advance

  • Very nice, one of my favorites !

    Brings back memories of when I played guitar in an acoustic folk harmony trio back in the early 90's.

    I think what richardguitar1 meant to suggest below was adding a D major with an F# in the bass between the F and C chords after the E7. Makes for a nice 'Dylan-esque' style passing chord. (These are actual chord positions played, kapo or no kapo.

  • im gonna start learning this right now...

  • wow nice lesson thank you a lot!!!!appreciated

  • Mississippi John Hurt!

  • Beautiful rendition. The breakdown of what you are doing is quite clear. Thanks a million.

  • Well done! You have an excellent teaching style. very helpful

  • ... with the guitar upside down ! Brilliant !

  • And looks like Liz Cotten was left handed too !
