Cold Cold Heart - Byrd Diatonic tuning

Andy Volk · From: Boston, MA

Doug's great version of Cold Cold Heart reminded me to resurrect these links for members who may not have seen them. Here's Jerry Byrd's arrangement of Cold Cold Heart in his C Diatonic tuning:

And here's a link to Byrd's first recording in this tuning - amazing playing; like running water.

A number of years ago I experimented with the tuning and recorded this one version of My Funny Valentine then got distracted by other stuff and never went back to it. There are a lot of possibilities to explore. In general, you have to play grips rather than strumming chords but you can get harp-like cascades that are pretty cool.
