Default Sleeping Tune (Tony McManus arrangement)

Heard this Tony McManus arrangement a while back & immediately had to 1) learn it 2) have a guitar built by Michael Greenfield to play it on.

Been a while since I last played it, but had a spare afternoon so here goes...

Nice job. Sounds like you spent some time with the piece and got the feel of it.

I agree -- very hard to get anything even closely resembling Tony's touch and attack, but you acquitted yourself well. The Greenfield certainly doesn't hurt....

I'm guessing that's the result of the English Bank Holiday?

Hey Joel,
really cool and very ruminant. The old Tetrachord still does it. I wish I had the same Greenfield .
What is the tuning?

Thanks and greetings from cologne,
David
