If you go to the guitar site and sort "unreleased" there are a number of good tabs for these songs, including Hunter (which is the same tuning as This Flight Tonight, with that low jangling G string, tabbed by Mark d.). Have fun!!! Eastern Rain is beautiful and I just discovered that if you play around with that tuning you can also play some great Nick Drake songs (To the Morning, Northern Sky, ). www.jmdl.com/guitar I played a very tentative version of Come to the Sunshine at Jonifest and originally had planned to also play Eastern Rain and another favorite Day After Day (which Marian tabbed). But I hadn't practiced enough, mea culpa. My goal during winter vacation is to tab Blue on Blue - another Second fret favorite. I LOVE THESE SONGS! > > "eastern rain-what a beautiful melody- > > did you ever hear fairport conventions version?" > > > >> "I also have an old vinyl bootleg which has a studio version of a song >> called "good samaritan" which to me sounds like an eary version of "this > > flight tonight."" > > >Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2002 14:40:29 +0100 >From: LXROSS@ctrl.co.uk >Subject: RE: One more thing Joni needs..... > >and didn't she then make a painting of the image used in the Gap ad, >ironically calling it 'self promotion'? > Talking about self-promotion, I tried my hand at a portrait of Joni after the gap ad in pastel.
