Blue-Eyed Billy-Bob Brown Blues is a fun and swanky blues shuffle for an intermediate guitar trio. The song is remeniscient of classic 12-bar blues tunes with a slight 1950's rock 'n roll edge. This piece is sure to get the audience toes tapping, and the players should have some fun too. Guitar 3 functions as a bass player, with walking bass lines and some groovy little licks. Guitar 1 features solos and melody highlights. Guitar 2 functions as the harmoniser, but also has some counter-melodies and licks too. --- Key: G blues --- Tempo: Recorded at 100bpm --- Time signature: 4/4 --- Feel: Blues shuffle --- Form: In A A B A --- bravemusicaustralia.com.au --- Sunglasses essential! 😎.

Composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. Arranged by Richard Hirsch. Baroque,Christian,Classical,Country,Folk. Individual part. 7 pages. Richard Hirsch #829813. Published by Richard Hirsch (A0.1234273).

I offer an arrangement of Bach’s all-time favourite Jesus, Joy of Man’s Desiring for solo acoustic or classical guitar. I have arranged the piece in 4/4 time in a folk-fingerpicking style giving it something of an American folk-country character, perhaps verging on a gospel. The arrangement follows the original as faithfully as possible with the melody and choral sections interwoven. 

I think the piece survives the time-change operation beautifully, retaining the joyful and praiseful character of Bach’s original. The piece is a joy to play and to listen to.

The arrangement is accessible to intermediate to advanced students of acoustic or classical guitar. Any student of guitar who has mastered the basics of thumb-index-middle fingerpicking  (thumb, thumb, index, middle, thumb, index) will have fun with the piece.

I give extensive left hand fingering accompanied by tabs as a guide to the intermediate students of guitar. Right hand fingering is given for the first playing of the repetitive passages and in passages where it might be difficult for the performer to find appropriate  fingering. Otherwise I expect the fingering to be more or less self-evident, leaving it to the individual taste and style of the interpreting guitarist.

I have set the tempo to Presto for the arrangement to keep close to lively nature of the original, but the arrangement can also be played much slower, somewhere around Metronome 130. This results in a shift in mood towards a ragtime blues, verging on a spiritual. This great music is a never-ending source of inspiration.

The piece is a nice follow-up to my folk-fingerpicking arrangements for Freight Train and The Entertainer.
