Any idea where one can get the chords for Jezaig? I'd love to learn to play this beautiful song!

Amazing tune! I checked out Phil Keaggy's version of John the Revelator and it's superb. He's definitely a much better singer than I am!

Guest said

That's really smashing when it goes back to the gentle melody after the dancing!

Guest said

So has this one. So pretty!

I like this, man. I hadn't heard it before (or if so, wasn't paying attention). It's really nice.

Thank you for the comment! Yes, the hiss does bring a certain something to the song, like so many uncontrollable drones. The hiss wasn't necessarily intentional, but I left it in for a reason..glad you like it! Anyway, I like what I'm hearing from you so far :) very calming to listen to, good morningtime music

More polychords make their appearance . .. you're a sneaky composer, almost like Ralph Vaughn Williams meets Isaac Albeniz, if that makes sense.

Nice, glad you put Jezaig up. I actually "transcribed" this tune years ago, though I'm sure I was nowhere close. I need to dig up that Breton music on Uilleann pipes cassette you gave me. Bet there were some good tunes on there.
