about

My original inspiration for this was seeing and hearing Guy Van Duser play this - probably at the Passim Coffee House in Cambridge. I took guitar lessons for a short while from Guy, an incredibly talented player and he gave me enough hints and encouragement to give this a try. Listen to his recording of it for a full fledged and fingered version of it.

I learned my own simplified version of it and it was always a crowd pleaser. And what took me about 6 months to get a grip on, Chris Peters picked up in about 15 minutes so we played it as a duo. So this is 2007 so Chris is probably all of 13 years old or so - incredible.

lyrics

I believe Chris is panned left and I am to the right. Regardless, I am the first one to play and then Chris does a quick response and that should get you oriented.
