Run Honey Run - John Martyn

A real oldie - from London Conversation. Somebody uploaded a truly bizarre speeded up version of this onto youtube a while ago which inspired me to have a little go at it.

@BigPhil22 Cheers. Glad you enjoyed it.

I've just discovered London Conversation, and this track jumps out from an amazing record. Thanks for doing such a great cover, I like your trueness to the rhythm, rather than being note perfect, and the vocals are spot on for JMs slurry style. I hate when songs are better known for a cover (morcheeba) than the better original.

I ain't giving up till I nail this. Are you tuned to DADDAD?

@1978BenF It's open G7th (FGDGBD). Tricky timing - good luck with it. Cheers.

Does anyone anyone have any ideas what JM meant by "But I seek after sword, after sounds of the sea / A charm forever around my mind" mean?

[RobertSaunders1973]

Great song. Please could you send me the tab? Thanks.

Love this song.

Hello once again, i now come to you humbly to ask your opinion on my own music videos, or at least the sounds you hear, i made a couple of covers and i would like it if you were to hear them and tell me a review.

Thank you and keep up the amazing work.

@Waggonerslad Cheers for that. I'll give it a bash in that. I have a tab for it in DADDAD but it's got a couple of tricky changes with the capo on the 9th fret. Your way offers much more finger space!!!

@Mystery13Cat No no, I was just making a joke! Being flippant, sorry. I'm not a professional musician you see. Just messing around in my spare time. Thanks for your kind remarks. :)
