Talk:Little Martha

consistency

The article states both that the track was performed solely by Duane Allman, and that he was joined by Betts. This needs to be made consistent. The track ounds like a solo to me; who has more expertise or references to settle the point? Jgm 11:38, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

It's a duet. It's the only Allmans song that Duane solely wrote, which I think is what the article was trying to say. I've clarified the wording. Wasted Time R 11:52, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

The song is definitely in open E tuning. However, if one tunes his guitar to open E using an electronic tuner, and then tries to play along to the track, he will find his guitar is significantly flat compared to Duane and Dickey's guitars. Was that an artifact of the mastering process, or were the guitars tuned to each other but not to a tuning fork, or....?? Does anyone know the answer to this conundrum?Rodney420 (talk) 19:28, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

 Maybe your turntable's running a little slow?

No, I haven't had a turntable since the 80's. But whether played from a CD, a digital file or youtube, the song as recorded is sharper than open E. Rodney420 (talk) 19:05, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

The song is absolutely in E tuning or slightly sharp of E. Regarding Rodney420's question, I am unsure if the sharpness is caused by recording methods, lack of or limitations of the tuners they used, or if it was done intentionally. E3super (talk) 01:39, 29 August 2017 (UTC)
