Jim Stafford Plays Classical Gas Branson, MO
This is probably from back in the 1970s would be my best guess.

SAVE IT FOR LATER
Some of the most cryptic lyrics in music history and an interesting guitar tuning: DADAAD
In fact, the tuning stumped Pete Townsend (The Who) and David Gilmour (Pink Floyd) and they had to make a phone call to the songwriter for help!!!
Song original done by The English Beat. Quite a few interesting stories behind this song. I really like this version:

torn80: That's an interesting story. You'd think that two guitar greats would have the experience to recognize most any commonly used tuning. I hear that the Velvet Underground also used that particular tuning several times. Very appropriate considering the subject matter of the song.

Interesting behind the scenes info about the development of this song. The guitarists took a simple song idea and turned it into something truly impressive.
