The Yellow Princess John Fahey The Yellow Princess by John Fahey This tune is an epic of simplicity. It sounds long and complicated but it is made of pieces that are both simple and physically easy to play even for the inexperienced fingerpicker. It is great fun to play; there is a well defined melody line and a catchy loping rhythm even when played at slower tempos. And it is in standard tuning, unlike most of Fahey's longer pieces. You can hear Fahey's rendition of this piece on his CD's TH (azchords.com)
