Richard Bridge What songs/tunes are you practising now? (38) RE: What songs/tunes are you practising now? 02 Feb 16


"The first cut is the deepest" (Cat Stevens but working from the Sheryl Crow version) probably in single drop D but it might go to double drop D.

Travelling Light (from the Cliff Richard recording)

Street Fighting Man (using a funny capo to approximate the open G tuning).

Blowing in the Wind (working from the Marvin Gaye recording)

King Knapperty (obviously from the Carthy recording, hoping to make a mandolin part out of it)

Bonnie Lass of Anglesey (also from the Carthy recording, hoping to make a guitar part out of it using a funny capo to approximate DADGAD)

Meet on The Ledge (hoping to get it a bit more folkie than the Fairport original and planning to use chorus after every verse)

And one of these years I will get back to the elusive Monster Science (working from the Kirkpatrick recording) and Stockholm Tar (from the Spinners recording).
