Thank you for this.
I’ve only just mastered ‘ running from home’ so please give me a decade or so to catch up 😅
Thanks x
Brilliant stuff Jon.
I had a go at this and just couldn't seem to get anywhere with it, but might give it another go.
I love the piece but for some reason I find it quite challenging.
I didn't realised Bert Transcribed Vol 2 had this in, so thank you for mentioning it, I have just purchased a copy 🙂
Wonderful lesson video, yet one little thing I'd like to see; is that there would've been a full performance at the end. I'm a very visual learner and a full-speed performance would've given me a little more clues about the "C" or the difficult module in the middle. I've been trying to play "The Wheel" for around ten years and finding out a lot of my fingerings were fundamentally on point but incorrect to Bert is a suprise!
You're in luck! I just found a full run-through I made at the time (this lesson was originally done some months ago), and uploaded it here: ua-cam.com/video/oAZy1VWwL4s/v-deo.html.
@@Jonpriley Thank you kindly Jon! You're doing a great service to Bert's music and of course to the English-style guitar players out there.
Where did you take the tab? Thank you so much
I transcribed it from the record (both recorded versions) checking fingering from a live video. It's available in the book mentioned in the comments: www.musicroom.com/bert-jansch-bert-transcribed-the-bert-jansch-hl00403259
@@Jonpriley a fantastic job.
Hi where can I find the book referenced through out the video

Got my volume 2 book today , the print text isn’t that prominent especially for the tab , is this standard or a fault
I think this is Hal Leonard's house style. The tab I sent them was clearer - larger font, and white-out around the numbers (breaking the lines though the numbers). It was apparent in the proofs stages that the latter was an issue (^0", "3" "6" and "8" easily get confused!), and I did mention it at least twice. The tab guide in the intro has white-out, so I didn't think it would be a problem for them. But the person I was dealing with, although she was very alert to other issues, was not the person responsible for the formatting, and somehow - with all the other tweaks and corrections that the proof-reading kept throwing, this issue got lost. I should have insisted on it more repeatedly, but when it comes to thing like a publisher's house style - and you assume that they know what they are doing, that other customers are fine with it - there's not much an outsider like me can do. I should say it looks a lot better in print than the low res PDF proofs did, but white-out would still have made a big difference. As would larger font in general! (The tiny staves in the intro examples are ridiculous, but - again - that's a house style issue.)
