Amazing Grace - Instrumental

Posted by: spacebass on 10 February 2011

Hello.  I've been given the task of finding a good instrumental version of Amazing Grace to be played at a funeral.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Paul

Hello, Paul,
the first 2 are instrumentals and well to be used at a funeral, especially Charles Lloyd's version. But I also really love the Rod Steward version.

It depends what instruments you are looking for
I have 3 versions that i know of,  maybe more hiding somewhere, on a compilation CD's
Gospel choir version with LSO backing,  the choir are what makes it (for me)
Jeff Beck (amazing) guitar version,  for a guitar enthusiast
Black Dyke Band,  but maybe its like the guitar,  for enthusiasts only
 
But loads & loads of more conventional are out there on www,  strings, organ, full orchestra, brass, bagpipes .....  it really is a question of take your pick,  I guess you need to go google, listen & grab download
