Thread Name: Tom Rush tuning
Subject: RE: Tom Rush tuning
The Tom Rush songbook "Wrong End of the Rainbow" shows "Rockport Sunday" in B F# B F# B D# tuning.When I saw him in Spokane a few years back he used "Rockport Sunday as an intro to "No Regrets" as Alan does. The book shows "No Regrets" in standard tuning but played capoed 3 frets in A positon for a Key of C. I play capoed 2 to make the EM/c Dm/c C transition easier to find. (play the dots). The joni Mitchell songbook shows "the Circle Game" in standard tuning Key of C.Don't know what tuning Tom used on it. By the way, has anyone heard emmylou Harris' version of "No Regrets"? It's on her "Profiles" collection and is awesome.And for the 6-link connection thread. I went to elementary school with emmylou. rr
