I knew you would like this one Ken. After our chat the other night and you told me about your affinity for Martins as soon as I saw it I thought of you. I have to admit that Martin sounds unbelievable, and the way this guy plays it so effortlessly is amazing to me.
I agree with you Cosmic I can only imaagine how many times this guy has played this song to nail it like that.

Hi Bill, really like this song and this style in general. There is a song from Laurence Juber called White pass trail. The video is not on a nice Martin, but I just want to show a similar style.Both songs sounds like a mixture traditional Irish and British roots from the 60's like Pentangle or Davey Graham.
Thanks for sharing and I am heading to vote for Sligo Creek

Hi Willem Thanks for the idea of adding a link to the voting page I had never thought of that so here it is if you would like to vote for this to be a lesson on TG just follow this link:
Marc, Thanks for the video, very nice. I couldn't really place this type of guitar in a genre and you helped me to do that. I think learning some tunes like this would be very rewarding and impressive to add to the repertoire.
