  • Anyone have any idea what tuning he is in and what chord he's playing? I can't find any TAB anywhere!

    Love you john. I just wish more people could share your music.

  • Tuning is CFCCGD. Try the official JM website (under "articles") for some info on the chords.

  • This is basically the best thing on Youtube.

  • I saw him open for Yes back in the 70s playing solo like this with nothing more than an Echoplex, a volume pedal and a fender amp. It was a perfect warmup for a Yes who were in their prime. The experience of seeing one man create such a fullness of sound and fine music has stayed with me to this day. I'm glad this is here so people can see what it was like. Thanks for the post.

  • R.I.P John Martyn

  • @Fennzander amen

  • @panzermort That's fair enough, but I play guitar and I know from what he's playing and the fingering more or what that tuning is. Try it and see what you think.

  • @EddieG1888 I think his tunings are well known and have been talked about so much there are forums filled

  • @synestheticmusic I should hope so m8 :)

  • @Steevlan1 Saw the same billing at MSG in 1973 I was all of 13 yrs old .Blown away by JM and the echoplex  That was it onstage just him and 4 House spotlights shining on him. Someone threw a frisbee up thru the spot beams in the middle of this song and he saw it and said "Wooooow" all the while playing with out missing a beat.

    Long Live John Martyn !

  • @panzermort
