great

[@richardrose3717]

Your rendition is close to Lang's and is also very interesting, certainly playable. I would like to see your tab of it. I play my arrangement in open C but have also seen some modified open C tunings as well.

[@andrewlardner]

Thanks Richard. This is how Peter played the piece. I teach it on my Patreon and tab is available there. Info in video description.

Beautiful playing. Have you concerned doing any Jack Rose videos? He’s one of my favorite fingerpickers, maybe second only to Fahey

[@andrewlardner]

Many folks on my Patreon are hoping for a Jack Rose post. I have yet to find something of his that I’d like to record, that doesn’t mean I don’t like his music because I do. Just can’t find that perfect fit for my channel yet.

[@vonbrach]

What tuning is that in? Also is that the Phrygian mode?

[@LMMiller9]

There is another Peter Lang tune in this same tuning which I picked up from Tony Klassen. I forget the name. Nice to have a second one to play without retuning. By the way, stupid question, what is a "Thoth?"

[@andrewlardner]

You might be talking about Young Man, Young Man, Look at your shoes. I talk about it and play a little bit of it in my lesson on this tune. Thoth is one of the Egyptian gods.

[@LMMiller9]

@@andrewlardner Actually, it was Red Meat on the Road. Tony plays it really well.

[@richardrose3717]

As l lay Sleeping also makes a nice medley with Thoth Song.
