The Yardbirds - White Summer
[…] is based around the traditional Irish melody “She Moved Through the Fair”, and specifically the British folk guitarist Davey Graham’s arrangement of the song, which was the first recorded example of a piece played in DADGAD tuning (of which Graham was the originator). By incorporating elements from Indian rāgas, Graham hoped to demonstrate the similarities in the modality of the Celtic folk tradition and the music of the Orient.
