I had caught sight of bits of this video, but hadn't followed it up. If I'm honest I leapt to the conclusion that the lads were rather too posh university, Sunday supplementy, kid-on folkies with unfeasibly clean white sweaters to appeal to my grounded tastes.
However, closer analysis and a setting aside of prejudices reveals that I actually think this is a fantastic tune. I hope it proves as much of an earworm for you as it's been doing for me.

I just picked the CD up the other day but I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, Little Lion Man is a better tune than that. :O)

There may be some truth in that!
ReplyDeleteEither way, if you learn the chords we've got a new party piece for the pub.

I play the guitar about as well as a spaniel when I've been drinking. It'll be a real treat for the other patrons.
ReplyDeleteThe Cave sounds easy enough. Something very like DADGAD but not quite I think. Little Lion Man capo at 5th and fuck about with Am, C, G and F shapes. Would need to sit down and work them out properly.
Need to get a banjo too, of course. Tracy will be delighted.
