Description:

My favourite Bert Jansch song (and must be Jimmy Pages too). Difficult to sing as the melody covers a fairly wide range. Bert put music to a trad celtic folk number. Not many songs that go with a Glasgow accent. Originally posted by my bro who recorded me.

Absolutely beautifully played and sung. Can I ask where you found the lyrics, I've been looking for them for a while?

It took a while trying to hear exactly what Bert sings and then I tweaked it slightly. Bert actually sings it from a females point of view as this is the way it was sung to him.

so excellent loved the singing as well especially the "make me believe the sun rose in the west with your lying tounge" part. You really play it with taste and feeling. Makes me want to hit a few shots of Irish whiskey, laugh, cry and then maybe get in a fight(just kidding on the last part ) TOP SHELF PERFORMANCE

Thanks very much! Really appreciate your kind words. Needs a bit of work, I know. I've finally got a webcam working so I'm hoping to get a few more on soon.

This is terrific. great job. Am I right in thinking you are actually playing Jimmy Page's slightly altered verion here (in DADGAD?) rather than Bert's?

I think I already commented on this when your bro posted it, very impressive job considering you play it faster than the original. Really great. HOw about posting some more covers to show us what else you can play.

That was excellent.I would almost say that it was 'clearer ' to listen to than the one by the man himself. Cheers

Your guitar playing and singing are superb! Are you in U.K? Do you have any other songs to listen to? I would especially enjoy hearing you sing some more. Do you play out in folk clubs at all?
