Hey Farrell - I never caught this track in the rush of the years. In your details , it's a Takamine guitar. I've never held one, but heard raving reviews. i was listening in your peice here closely to the intonation of your guitar. and seriously it sounds absolutely flawless. Perfection in intonation, displayed by excellent guitar player ability. Geesh, I've never used an E string tuning so lo. sounds great, that's below a D . I've slearned something new today from ya
@shane Thanks for the very thoughtful words! The tuning is some sort of C. The low E string is tuned down to C. You need some heavy strings to hold the intonation of such a slack tuning.

Glad you steered me toward this! The guitars sound great, nice performances and good production. I've always admired alternative tunings but never indulged in them much, I'm content to listen. Well done!
@farrell-jackson so pretty ~ heard this on Mix radio the other night & mentioned it reminds me of the Hawaiian slack key music here ~ to which you wrote...yes, indeed it is ~ so mellow & soothing
Thanks Moe ! My neighbor went to Hawaii and brought me a CD with all styles of slack key playing. I listen a few times and decided I could do that. I didn't copy any songs, I just tried to capture the slack key open tuning style. Thanks!

Thanks so much Toni! Sometimes I wonder where these creations come from myself, lol. I'm so glad you are enjoying it and Merry Christmas to you and yours as well!

Oh my Farrell Jackson! This is such a fine nuanced tune. I love the melody more than I can say so I will just tell you I am sitting here at my 4:30am looping this now that I have downloaded it for my show. And that slide work....awesome. Such a perk for us DJ's, no one says we cannot listen for personal enjoyment right?
Merry Christmas Farrell to you and yours, thank you for your support of BRnB's always. ~ Toni
Thanks Gary! This is the same tuning that Jimmy Page used for Led Zep's Black Mountain Side. Originally I had vocals and lyric for this but I decided to do the same melody and harmonies with the slide instead.....so it became an instrumental.
Farrell
Awesome man! This has a big time Jimmy Page feel to it and the slide coming in is a sweet little surprise!
