A great arrangement and time saver

I am a guitar player, but needed a new / upbeat arrangement of these patrioutic tunes as I had gotten stale doing some of these as sing alongs... The "C" version would not have fallen well on guitar, so I changed to D, downloaded and everything fell nicely on guitar except the Marine Hymn which I moved to "G" major (also plays nice in E on guitar). I have played it for Coffee shops, church settings, and retirement homes and it goes over well. Although the arrangement is pianistic, and one or two fills are awkward on guitar; if you are playing the same things over again this will add a new freshness to your arrangements. I also cut all transitions to 2 measures. Well worth the challange, and the money (got paid to do the shows and collected tips). Highly recommended.
Comments On This Review
This was useful, but I think poorly rated. It alerted me that this was not particularly "guitar/uke" friendly throughout, but... if you take it up 1 step to D it falls nicely on guitar and uke from start to finish
