Nostalgia at its finest! Miss my UO Days, if I could time travel I would go back and sit next to my younger self and watch him struggle and play as I once did in this game!
I knew David Watson, who wrote this. Taught me about carving crossbows, in fact. I once asked him for a tab and he just laughed and said it was written on a napkin in a pub. Fantastic guy.
First thank you so much for making these tabs available. Nice job playing also. This song brings back so many memories playing UO online. This song gives me chills. Going to try and learn this version it's very nice. Thank you!
Ultima VI war mein "Urknall", und der Song Stones hat die Atmosphäre von Ultima wie kein anderer geprägt. Diese idyllische Melancholie, man möchte einfach sofort durch ein Moongate nach Britannia reisen können.
+Christian „BerZerK“ Skwirblis: das ging mir auch so: viel zur mystischen Atmosphäre beigetragen hat auch, dass ich damals kaum Englisch verstanden habe. Und weil ich keine Anleitung zum Spiel hatte, musste ich die Runenschrift mühsam und mit viel Ausprobieren entziffern ;-)
Absolutely beautiful! Thank you Andre`. Well played - I'll raise my grog mug to you my friend and fellow adventurer in life. Well played, your fellow adventurer Matt ;)
Very nice! Master Iolo / David Watson (who wrote "Stones") taught it to me many years ago, long before it was linked to Garriot's game. I daresay that you play it more cleanly than I can. Practice shows! Well done, sir! But I ask you this... can you sing it 'round a campfire and have folk join in? :-D
Thanks for your comment Corrie. I'm excited to hear you know Iolo personally :) It's awesome how Watson's tune inspires so many people all around the world after all this time. The last time I've played guitar at a campfire is many years ago now (and I could barely strum some chords back then). I guess recently I'm more a living room performer and my sole audience is my wife and sometimes the internet ;)
Greetings Corrie, I've always wanted to talk to Iolo, since I was a kid playing Ultima VI. Is it true that he's a bowyer in real life? I think sometimes that his character was one of the influences that inspired me to start making bows. And Andre, that was a fantastic rendition of the song. It's in my favorites. Ironically, I just remembered that my avatar for youtube is from the cover of U6. Too funny!
Yes, David makes very fine period-reproduction crossbows. New World Arbalest www.crossbows.net/ Tell him the city and year and he'll make something that looks like it was stolen from a museum. And they shoot straight and smooth!
This comment is the best, solidifies the pure beauty this guy gives this song! Master IoIo is an interesting guy would be awesome to sit around a camp fire with a fine ale and hear him tell stories and play some music!
Very very well done. Thanks for the tab! Had a go and have to say that this is the most difficult thing I've ever tried to play on the guitar! Makes Metallica a piece of cake :-)
Awesome job mate, very well done.. Now if we could just convince Malukah to add lyrics im sure the combo of your rendition and her lyrical styling's would make this a hit
@mikelpify, This is the Key of G, not B flat. It is very close to B b, but as you can see... he is playing A minor and G major. For it to be B flat, he would be playing A dim and G min as the roots.
I want to learn this. anyone know a tab or instructional video. it's 2017 and I'm about to climb in the attic to find and hook up my old SNES just to play Ultima! ultima and final fantasy were the two biggest contributors to my gaming addiction growing up :]

I miss my Ultima 3 and 4 days....best EVER
kids these days will never know of Brintannia and her beauty.
of course they will, you can still play these games on digital stores like GOG and Origin
they will hear her beauty through Stones
I have

Brings back many memories of playing Ultima during the winter time on my Commodore 64.
From time to time I come here to listem again. One more time thank you.
Wow! Beautifully played. What a nostalgia hit. "Forest" is my second favourite.

Well done, brought me back to days (and nights) of playing Ultima.

Genau, am meisten Englisch gelernt hatte ich mit dem Spiel und die Runen kann ich heute noch ;-)
Well played, Bard!

I think I've fallen in love...
Cool!
I want to record this brilliant and touching work with a microphone using vacuum tubes.
You should totally play this at every Renaissance Faire ever.
bravo！懐かしい😊 Corp Por⚡、Kal Vas Flam🔥
I think the tune was composed by Iolo.. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_R._Watson
いい音楽、友達
"In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees..." Funny, I never noticed that before.
IPY3 people. renewed old times!
Tears? No, that's just some random juice coming from my eyes... Happens from time to time...
Poderia repostar esse vídeo com melhor qualidade? Abraço!
