Guitar latest

I just bought a book called ‘Open tunings for blues guitar’ because it had the tab for a Robert Johnson tune that I love - drunken hearted man. I’m slowly picking my way through it (!) and it’s quite satisfying to be able to develop some different skills.  To be honest it’s only in drop d so not that radically different from normal open tuning but I really like the song.  There are a few others to get to grips with but I think it makes sense to attempt them one at a time.  I really love playing my guitar even though I know I’m not that good at it.  It’s just really satisfying to be able to express your personality through six wire wound strings.  Sometimes I can pass hours at a time just sitting on the sofa and plucking about.  I have tried to write some tunes of my own but always feel my lyrics are roquefortesque and my melodies malodorous.  Still fun though.

Here is someone more adept giving their interpretation of RJ’s tune:

Not sure on the singing style…it veers around being spot on like a dog through the cones at crufts…but good effort mate!
