Iron Hand : Battle of Orgreave

[Tobben]

Get it back out on tour.....Im sure the whistle twins will add a heavy dose of Celtic schmooze.

There are actually quite a few from OES that would suit well today....this....and How Long, maybe it even YAYF - its a slow builder and MK could take things nice and steady on the Pensa....

Couldn't agree more ??👍

There is also a version performed by Alan Clarks outfit which in my view is also tremendous and very haunting from around 2011. Look it up on YouTube if you can stomach it : great Chris White intro

That's the one. Nice arrangement to my ear

Anybody knows what guitar Mark uses on the performance from Paris (YouTube clip posted earlier)?  Looks like a Taylor but I strongly doubt it would be…

Good question Boris, i 'd like to know too. After listening to the vid closely, some of the other better quality versions, and studying pixelated headstock images ;-) lol, if I had to guess I'd say it sounds very Martin like.

Anyone else want a turn on the speculationometer?

I think it's the Godine that Palmer uses for WOL.

I recall seeing pictures of Mk with that guitar

Too thin. The guitar is definitely a full body guitar. I'm sticking with my Martin guess!

With all due respect, what exactly one can use information about the guitar used in this song for? It's a simple strumming song, Mark can play it on everything that has strings, basically. It's not like it has a particularly magic sound to it or something. Was it the only acoustic guitar song in the set by the way? Apart from Romeo and Investigations.

This?

Yep, definitely not the Godin in the video, although I have a vague recollection in one of the guitar magazines of the day that MK tried the Godin for Iron Hand.
