Fingerstyle guitar has always been the most satisfying ways of playing guitar. I started the long journey on the fingerstyle road when I had my first classical guitar lessons many years ago. From there my interest in grew into using folk styles of fingerstyle, especially after listening to players of the folk boom era of the the 60's and early 70's: Nick Drake, Paul Simon, Bert Jansch, Martin Carthy, John Renbourne and many more. I was amazed at the textures of sound you could get out of a simple six string, using either regular tuning, or the whole range of altered tunings just waiting to be explored. In this volume I'll be sharing with you some of the very first folk fingerstyle tunes that I tried on my road to playing guitar. Some are my arrangements of traditional tunes and a few are my own compositions in the folk style.
