Hi Everybody,
Here is an old John Fahey tune that is a blast to play-


Spanish Two-Step is a tune John Fahey kept in his live repertoire for his entire career. He altered the title a few times over the years, also calling it Hawaiian Two-Step, on After The Ball, and Tasmanian Two-Step on Live In Tasmania.

It is in Open G Tuning and includes the very unusual left-hand technique of raking all the strings with the index finger. It should bring a smile to your face when listening to it, and an even bigger one as you work on playing it.
