If you haven't seen this yet, you may get a litle
excited.



Barry Galbraith was a huge talent on the guitar in the
50 and 60s -- especially in the area of arranging --
his chord melodies are superb -- every note
meticulously thought out and arranged in suh a way to
bring out out the true timbre of "jazz guitar..."

barry's duets are also fine ... and his books on
"comping" IMO are comparable to none....

This is a most excellent book being offered free ...

... I studied with Barry Galbraith in '74 in NYC -- he
had a small suite of offices in the Brill building on
54th and Broadway ... down the hall were music
publishing companies songwriters, booking & publicity
agents, etc, ... there was always a beevy of activity
on the 11th floor

Barry was a great talent ... hear him on Johnny
Hartman's "The Voice That is Johnny Hartman" -- he
plays a really cool classical guitar oon Mancini's
"Slow Hot Wind"


Thanking You In Advance,

The Barry Galbraith book was contributed by Jeremey Poparad
back in 2003 to YJGG's file archives and is our top download
from the file archives.

Andy Polon who studied with Barry back in the 1970's
collected the arrangements. The original arrangements were
hard to read and made particularly so because Barry used a
"wet copier" a 1970s mimeograph machine by 3M to make copies
for his students. So to make them easier to read they were
input into a notation program with the result of the book.

During the same time period, Mel Bay took some of Barry's
arrangements and made two books with tabs and CD's.

Sadly, there have been unscrupulous people who have
downloaded the book from our archives made it available
elsewhere, without giving any credits, and in two instances
(that I know about) even tried to sell the book or extracts
from the book.
