A nice little acoustic guitar solo from Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page off their 1975 double album Physical Graffiti. I decided to do this since my fingers were vaguely hardened to the violence of the acoustic guitar due to last week's rendition of Touch, Peel and Stand.

Apparently "Bron-Yr-Aur" is Welsh for "side of the hill", and is the name of a cottage in Wales.

Over the last two weeks I've come to the irrefutable conclusion that I need a new acoustic guitar. Playing a barre chord on this guitar is the hardest thing I've ever had to do in my entire life. You can see the pain in this video as I have to shift my entire body to get enough leverage to barre at the fifth fret.

I also think there's some magic technique to eliminate string noise, but I have not yet mastered it. Enjoy the squeaks. The camera angles will continue until morale improves.
