God Bless The Child

About

Spanning half a chorus of the 38-bar AABA form at a ballad tempo of 55 BPM in E♭, the solo runs approximately 1:21. Stephen Riley's rendition of "God Bless The Child" on the 2019 album I Remember You pays homage to the song's originator, Billie Holiday, who co-wrote it with Arthur Herzog Jr. Vic Juris was 65 to 66 years old at the time of this 2019 recording.
