"Angie," by Davy Graham arr. Bert Jansch

My July Patreon lesson seeks to reclaim all of the nuance in Bert Jansch's original recording of "Angie" that has been lost to time. Come hang out with us as we micro-analyze every note of this classic arrangement. / andrewlardnerguitar

I've never seen anyone put this together so well. What a brilliantly controlled and faultless performance. That's the real thing. Absolute perfection. Stunned.

[@andrewlardner]

Thank you!

[@endamcloughlin5345]

Blown away by that performance. Absolutely excellent.

[@andrewlardner]

Thank you. Worked really hard on trying to honor Bert with this one

[@endamcloughlin5345]

@@andrewlardner absolutely nailed it mate. Trying to get it down myself at the moment - plenty of work left to do for me :)

[@jsullivan2112]

Wow, very well played.

[@johntait491]

Really well played Andrew. I remember learning this tune way back in the early 70's when it was on everyone's "to learn" list. 😉

[@nathankinnaman595]

Bruh, that is def one of the best play throughs of this tune Ive heard.... and you know how much we heard it at the UW

[@skyrock1759]

The rasgueado in this song is so dope, the way you play it too is very true to the original album version, I noticed in the live videos of Bert playing this song that usually he’ll omit the individual finger rasgueados for a 4 finger single beat version, such a difficult technique but you make it look easy, kudos my friend 🥂

[@LaxLennart]

Incredible. This is my favorite version of this song, even more so than Bert Jansch's original. It's the flawless guitarplaying in combination with this old guitar that does it I think.

[@andrewlardner]

Thank you Lax, I’m glad you enjoyed the recording.

[@mistershpinks8666]

Best Angie performance on KZbin! Thank you!

[@rosewoody]

Perfect execution, beautiful woody thump, great guitar, great player.

[@andrewlardner]

Many thanks!!

[@jimbojones101]

Excellant.

[@dono1606]

Wonderful! Thank you Andrew!

[@justme-wh5li]

Good clean version. Thanks for uploading.

[@aidanfeldman9739]

How did I never see this coming? Amazing !

[@MrMichaelFenner]

Nailed it dude. You're inspiring me to play more recently which I greatly appreciate! Miss you like crazy man! All the best.

[@Airproofin]

Perfect Andy. I almost have Room 8 under my fingers thanks to you - cant wait to tackle this next!

[@michaeljoevitale]

Excellent really enjoyed! The bass thud on the guitar is sweet, wish I had that one

[@andrewlardner]

Thank you. I love these 30s 000 Martins but personally would not pay the price they’re going for recently. I think a lot of people buying them right now are going to get burned if they hope to get their money back out of them some day.

[@stevegrodis2426]

Nice job. I like this arrangement, it's similar to what Paul Simon played on the Sound of Silence LP.

[@nashwilliams5852]

Awesome to hear.

[@rickynyhoff]

Oh my. Thanks for that one, buddy. So much attitude.

[@petersmith9530]

totally awesome .thank you for posting.

[@michele21auntiem]

Magnificent!

[@eliotlandy2798]

Fabulous.👏👏👏

[@HarbottleAndJonas]

This is grand, nicely done!

[@madame-legurts5575]

Excellent!! I've been listening to the three best versions (Jansch, Davy's own version and Paul Simon's more clinical version) - and trying to learn it - for 50 years. I still can't play it. Great version...

[@rzadam]

Great execution and sweet tone!

[@jeffhildreth9244]

Had to come by and watch again. Excellent. Subscribed. Time for more goodies like this one. PS I have owned about 15 Martins since 1961, currently a 2015 00-18V with highly flamed mahogany backs and sides and a, 1 of 370, 0000-1 from 1997.

[@andrewlardner]

Very nice. One of my students has a newer OM that I think is a tremendously good sounding instrument. Have been considering cashing out some of the old guitars and buying new. Prices getting ridiculous on the pre war stuff

[@jeffhildreth9244]

@@andrewlardner When I was "buying" back in the 60s 70s and into the early 80s.. guitars were old and used. Now they are vintage and the prices are obscene. The culprits, hustlers such as the infamous Mandolin Bros ruined it for everyone. Surprise!! Martin and Gibson made some real dogs.

[@paulcatterall6022]

Simply amazing!👏👏👏

[@stefanoragni6972]

Perfect as always. Andy the beard touch the strings!!!

[@semb12]

Lovely

So nice !

[@polymerchm]

Great version, complete with the Chain Gang section!!!!

[@jonathangill6678]

Great work! It is pleasure to support this channel. 000-18 sounds great. I will trade you my 2017 model : )

[@stevepercival4774]

Nice job

[@isack9345]

it would be great if you played the song by Leo Kottke called "Shadowland" is a masterpiece

[@laurielardner593]

DUDE!

10/10

[@holzhausholz8215]

Is that Jethro Tull at 1:22? Amazing cover!

[@andrewlardner]

It’s from a Nat Adderley piece titled “Work Song”

[@holzhausholz8215]

​@@andrewlardner Great- I will have to look for that one. Thanks Andrew!

[@kingrobert1st]

Playing along with you I noticed you're not quite in tune to the standard 440 for A. But well played!

[@andrewlardner]

I also sometimes preheat the oven to 430 instead of 450.

[@jchunter6717]

Nice!! What year/model is that Martin? Definitely going to have to learn this tube on mine

[@andrewlardner]

Thanks for watching as always. It’s a 000-18 from 1935

[@jchunter6717]

Wow. I have a 000-18 from 1960. had a neck reset done last year as it was unplayable. Now I play it all the time.

[@andrewlardner]

@@jchunter6717 I’d really like to try a post war 000-18. The pre wars are awesome, don’t get me wrong, but the guitar is braced so light I couldn’t imagine playing it hard with picks.

[@jeffhildreth9244]

Extraordinary !
