Mel Bay has this arrangement of Maestro Ben Bolt with a CD. The introduction is a challenge for both the right hand and left hands ... hehehe... Certainly this is one of the MOST ADVANCED arrangements available, BOLT GENIUS...
Thanks for the reply. Are you sure the book contains this specific arrangement? There are videos on youtube of people playing a much simpler Ben Bolt arrangement of this. I would love to have a go at this particular arrangement.
ya, theres a crap load of songs in that specific book, they have more volumes of master anthology of fingerstyle too, they have 101 easy fingerstyle guitar solos that says it has i dont have that book though, mel bay has everything you just have to look for it on there website.
One of the most amazing things, amidst the ocean of technical artistry ben is wrenching from this performance is the fact that he actually tunes the guitar in the middle of the song (0:38) without you hardly even noticing. lol - love it! - Reminds me of the continuity that SRV's playing exhibited.
I wonder if there is sheet music for this piece so I can spend the rest of life learning it. All the harmonics near the beginning look to be very difficult.
I'm not impressed with the intro. I mean it is technically great, but it's just not musical. It doesn't fit at all to scarborough fair. But the rest is just great.
Fine, maybe the introduction seems a bit out of place for a traditional english song and the intro carries a hint of spanish guitar. But, then again his arrangement as a whole is impressive. He's the only one I saw who played this piece with harmonics and even played the counterpoints. Great playing. I do not believe NoHumanity can play like that.
Sucked. No emotion at all. And what's up with that intro?

I agree. Great arrangement, but I don't particularly like the intro it's a bit ostentatious.
