These scores are something I always wished I had when I was fingerpicking steel-strung guitars in the the folk clubs of London in the late 1960s. Included are instrumentals for solo guitar,all in standard tuning, including a couple of my own, but mostly from the early albums of Davey Graham, Stefan Grossman, Bert Jansch and John Renbourn. Everyone trying to play the folk guitar must own those albums ! not to mention those by Al Stewart, John Martyn, RoyHarper,Dando Shaft, the Incredible String Band . . . it was a moment of great creative flowering. Theyplayed often with a Capo on second or third fret, and mostly in triplet-rhythm, which I have notated in 12/16 and 9/16 to makethe beats clearer by grouping them under the same beam. An ascii-tab tablature edition of these pieces is also available. Davey Graham was playing jazz standards - tune, chords and bass - just as a piano trio could. And not so much by brute virtuosity,asbyintelligence: by letting the arrangement growout from the guitar.Just consult Cry Me a River on youtube to see hownaturally the playing lies on Davey’s six strings. Blind Blake, star of Piedmont blues, recorded more than 100 sides in Chicago in 1927-1932, and was one of the great influences on Gary Davis. Stefan Grossman came in from the US, having studied not just in NewYork with the Reverend Gary Davis, but also down south with Mississippi John Hurt, Son House, Skip James, Mississippi Fred McDowell - so carrying in him a huge and rich tradition. Bert Jansch was exploring the sound of alternating between an open string and the same note fingered on the next lower string, letting both vibrate. He later described The Wheel as "the sort of thing most guitarists have uptheir sleeves, little bits and pieces theythrow aw ayorforget". This splicing together of repeated motifs (’little bits’) was also much used in progressive rock, and in the classical tradition it is associated with Russian music, The Rite of Spring for example. John Renbourn’sfirst twoalbums were among my most treasured possessions. Included are: Angi,iconic and indispensible, and Thelonius Monk’s Blue Monk,from Davey Graham’sfirst album, Grooveyard from Folk Roots, NewRoutes,and Cry Me a River by Arthur Hamilton as played by Davey in Hound Dogs and BachAddicts: the guitar craze,made by Ken Russell in 1959 for BBC TV’s Monitor. Guitar Chimes recorded by Blind Blakein1929, Matesa and Powder Rag and Lena Anne from Stefan Grossman’s1972 live album, Alice’sWonderland and Veronica and Smokey River (the intro, and the title, refer to Jim Hall’splaying on The Train and the River with the Jimmy Giuffre trio), from Bert Jansch’sfirst album, and The Wheel from his second album, Plainsong and Down on the Barge (made up while he was living on a barge on the River We y), from John Renbourn’sfirst album, and Day at the Seaside and Debbie Anne from his second, Whisper Not by BennyGolson and The Entertainer by Scott Joplin, arranged by myself, and The London Rag written by myself in the late 1960s.
