My friend owns a good amount of johns belongings including a few guitars..john bestowed this task to him before passing. I remember trying to play this song on the martin he has and it sounded so much like the recordings that my leg would not stop shaking. Played the lap-steel from live in Tasmania album too. Great tune.
You produced that trembling melancholic sound so well. This is one of the many Fahey pieces where you can find something new every time you listen. I can’t wait to check out the Patreon lesson
It took me many years to get used to fingerpicks, similar to using nails and fingers it takes a lot of time to develop the precision it takes to get rid of the sizzling sound and get the attack angle just right. Still working on it.
On top of your excellent playing, your mic and recording approach really captures the full guitar sound. I'd like to send something of mine and have it sound that good when you hear it. Can you share what the mic and recording chain is? --If not, it's still another fine performance.
Really simple: guitar -> mics (small diaphragm condenser) -> recording interface (doesn't really matter what kind -> computer -> DAW (again doesn't really matter which one) Biggest results will come from the time you put into playing the guitar and a lot of time understanding best practices for the recording equipment.
@@andrewlardner Thanks for getting back to me, Andrew. The recordings I make of my recorded acoustic guitar playing do not sound as natural as when played in the room. Putting SM57s or Beyer dynamic or Sterling condenser into UAD Apollo and protools. Where is Tony Clarke or the guy who recorded Pentangle when I need them!
@@andrewlardner I can relate to that! My wife says I change guitars like clothes. There are a few I dearly miss. They all have different personalities don't they? Thanks for posting all the videos. Really enjoy them.
One of the best songs ever written.

Thanks Nash. More reverb than I would normally use to try to slightly emulate the album version.
Andrew you are the man. You got the essence. Keep them coming.
That Bozo belonged to my father, and he would be very happy to see it making beautiful music again. Great playing!
Very glad Steve sent the video along. It will be cared for.
You are a great talent we all have been fortunate you are here and willing to share. Thanks again. JB
Thank you so much for cataloguing Fahey's work for all of us who wish to play these masterpieces ourselves :)
You are very welcome, it is my passion.
really gorgeous and unique rendition of a wonderful song. fantastic playing
This guy fucks
A great rendition, especially like the tone. I never managed to get those ProPik fingerpicks sounding that warm and rounded.

@@andrewlardner Ha yeah 'sizzling' is the word alright, I shall persist
I was a fan of Fahey and all of the guitar players you play and now in my seventeen and I am I a fond of your videos !
Superb playing, and the sound is amazing, truly mesmerising.
One of the best covers of this song i've heard. Kudos

One of my favorite.
Beautiful playing Andrew.

Would you consider posting a rendition of Dalhart, Texas 1967? That’s my second favourite after Beverly
You are not the first to suggest that one, so I'll have to give it some thought for the future.
Bozo Padunovac: mostly forgotten builder. Made great looking and sounding guitars. Especially in your hands.
Hell yeah.
❤
I can feel it in my waters that you're going to do "on the sunny side of the ocean" imminently 😇
Hi, are you planning to cover "The Great San Bernardino Birthday Party", maybe in parts? It's such a haunting and lovely tune.
I actually have been. Waiting to find the right weissenborn
dude, Dude, DUDE !
Is it true that this is played a half step down from standard tuning? Thanks, and great playing as usual
Out of the ballpark again!
Thank you!
Standard Tunning or Drop D?
Do you own all of these great old guitars? Really enjoy your playing!!
My channel is a mix of guitars I own and some that belong to friends. They come and go, I wish they could all stay!

Beautiful playing. Is it a vintage Bozo guitar?
Thank you Yiannis. Yes it's a 1973 model, nice and plain.
Americana Classical
Nice Bozo
After careful consideration,

Is the degeneracy of the boomer generation.
