From memory, open G with capo at the 5th fret. :)

Voice apart - probably strained or a sore throat!! ;D

I love a lot of the stuff on Golden Heart - sooooo romantic and the first solo departure
One of the songs not included in the final cut was Gravy Train, I especially like the time he played with Sonny

I preferred his singing on the "A Night in London" and also the GH tour versions, especially Vaison.
