Wow,
That was really nice.
I asked Peter to post it on the recordings section. It will probably get more attention there.
What tuning did you use?

That isn't me playing. And I've no idea whatsoever what tuning he's using, nor who the player is. I found a 1959 video of Santos & Johnny playing the song, and Santos was using a triple neck instrument. They may have been playing in the key of C. (At least I thought Johnny was using an Am chord as the vi in his changes.)
