I know about E and D tuning. Back in '58, Don Everley showed me that. I believe what Jeff is talking about was something else that Mick did that allowed him to do things with "Dropped D" tuning that few others have been able to do. The week before Mick died he spoke of having all of these songs in his head, but due to the stroke he had suffered he wasn't able to play anymore. My question to him concerned anyone else who could play cords the way that he did and he said that there were a couple of people who could...Red Lane being one and I can't remember the other. I do appreciate the explanations that you posted, I just have major regrets of not being able to spend the time with Mick to pick his brain regarding his playing.
