Johnny B. Goode

Classic intro, this; 

One everybody probably knows from either Chuck Berry's Johnny B. Goode, the Back to the Future soundtrack or Jimi Hendrix.  Below is the original version from Berry's record.  The intro contains a lot of very recognisable rock/blues guitar licks and techniques, and is quite a tricky piece physically - you've really got to grab the guitar!

Stella By Starlight Chord Melody.

So, I've got the head, solo transcription and...

... chords down for Stella by Starlight.  Vital as all this may be, those parts are really to be played with other musicians backing or improvising over it.  The video below is my attempt at a chord melody arranged for the Stella By Starlight tune; it's ideal for playing solo.  This is created using variants of the chord voicings with the melody played on the top note of those chords so that you can "accompany" yourself.  Nice ambient sound with a little reverb too! :)

This particular arrangement was created by Mike Brookfield.
