Correct. Great for slide.

I am curious as to how you are able to learn so many songs well enough to perform them in such a short amount of time. You seem to turn out about 1 a week. Impressive! How many of them do you remember?
@mostlycountryblues16 күн бұрын
I learn, record and publish at different rates, depending on the tune. Some are also re-recordings from years past if I think I can improve. I have a backlog of recordings, so now they come out weekly.
@mostlycountryblues16 күн бұрын
I can't play much of my repertoire "cold" unless I just played or recorded it. If I did know it, I can usually pick it up relatively quickly (e.g. re-recordings). I have no innate talent, just a process . . . :)

Thanks. yes, if you were to try and count it out, you might go crazy. Get in Open Dm tuning and play around. You will start to feel it and not think it. Good luck!

Nice work Dave. I love Fahey's music. It appears simple to play yet it is often a challenge. And it is always a pleasure to play or listen.

Agree 100% on Fahey. The master of both composition and expression.
