flatbaroque Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 This song came up suggested by Em7 as a good one for BBG to show his new D16. I agree - hope he plonks a version here when he gets a chance.And anyone else too. I tried to learn this open tuning version a couple of years ago and gave up.I revisited in the last couple of days and it seemed to come easier.I've never come across this tuning anywhere else. E A C# e a c#. I've tried open A tunings in blues songs but they were a bit different.This seems more a modal tuning. Anyway always loved this song - so this is sort of how Dylan played it on Times they are a changin' album.He probably never used this tuning live I'd guess.Capo on 3 key of C. Cheers http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_-mRAz05XY&feature=youtu.be edit..while recording this I was playing on line scabble and my friend played her word half way through the song.My ipad made a little notification noise-which is audible.See if you sound detectives can spot it.

E-minor7 Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Fine go at a fine song ^ this stuff is rollin' in your veins. The tuning is something else. Worth investigating. Scrabble while playing guitar ?! , , , , as if Bob's words weren't enough. . Rock on out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vw1300 Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Sounds good to me - and thanks for the reminder of how great this song is, been a long time since I've heard it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatbaroque Posted January 19, 2018 Author Share Posted January 19, 2018 Cheers everyone.Thanks so much for the positive comments.Thanks Em7 for sewing the seed of a not so often talked of good song.I always feel like this was written by a guy that's lived 100 years..not 23. I felt 100 last night,maybe that's why it came out ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo25 Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I think he gets that a lot. Bob Dylan's Dream (age 22), Boots of Spanish leather (age 23), Lay down Your Weary Tune (age 22), Hard Rain (age 22), and so on and so forth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
