Fricke’s Picks: The Folk-Rock Theatre of Johnny Flynn
Rock and Roll Daily (Free subscription) | 18/08/2008

I was experimenting with Open D tuning, which is a favorite of such players as John Fahey, Bert Jansch, Phosphorescent, Bon Iver and others. The tuning is DADF#AD and Capo is on the 4th fret ( for all you players who want to know).
