Coming Down from Rising Fawn, Part 2
The B part of “Coming Down from Rising Fawn” is more like a fiddle tune, but with a few places where Norman extends his strum to get other open strings, some of which are not in the underlying chord. The C part begins with Norman strumming an unusual G–F–A–D chord progression and then moves into another characteristic Blake single-string lick where he bounces off the open first string while playing fretted notes up the neck. On the recording of “Coming Down from Rising Fawn” Norman is backed by rhythm guitarist Charlie Collins, whose playing features a slow walking bass that works particularly well when backing another guitarist. The bass line he uses in the B part is particularly distinctive and Scott finishes this lesson by going through the chords that Charlie uses.
