Hi everyone.
This is for guitarists only - otherwise press delete.
Everyone keeps stressing that the tuning for Black Mountain Side is
DADGAD. BUT, I'm 99.9% certain that it's actaully half a step down
from that. i.e C# G# C# F# Bb C#. This sounds a lot better. Try it
and hear. I haven't tried White Sumer in this tuning though.
I've seen That's the way as being in DGDGBD tuning, but that too,
according to my ears is half down from that. i.e C# F# C# F# A# C#.
This is also the case for Travelling riverside blues. Try it and see,
and you'll hear the difference.
I stand pretty firm on all the above. I've done and it sounds a lot
more to like what Uncle Jimmy plays.
Tangled Up In Blue,
Mende
