John Martyn - Bless the Weather

From the Collegiate Theatre London, 10 January 1978. The show was broadcast on the old grey whistle test and features on the BBC DVD but this performance came after the final credits rolled. It may have been shown at a later date but I don't know. This is from the same show as the fabulous small hours video uploaded by shiveringgoat.

Anyone know the tuning for this song? Been experimenting with alternative tuning ALOT recently and would love to know.

@BlackHole2005 The tuning, as altered by the capo on the second fret, is DADGAD. So the open tuning would be CGCFGC.

I miss your passion and joy, John. Lovely guitar introduction, and smile. LOVE YOU!

bless the weather that brought you to me , John

@BlackHole2005 It's probably his own, kind of like those absurd chords that Joni Mitchell plays. I use a capo and hope for the best!

I dream of being able to play an acoustic guitar as well as John Martyn!
