I would like to find sheet music of 'Shout for Joy' by Albert Ammons. Can anybody help?

Mike,you might try the Choral Public Library Domain; WWW.cpdl.org. They have an extensive library of choral music. Hope this is what you are looking for

Using the NorthernLight search engine ( http://www.northernlight.com/ ) with query:
+ammons +"shout for joy"
I got about 70 hits, including this page:
http://miltonsweb.mse.jhu.edu/research/folkindex/S08.htm
containing the index reference:
Shout for Joy
1.Ammons, Albert. Roots N' Blues - The Retrospective (1925-50), Columbia Legacy 47911/47912-15, Cas (1992),
cut#3.25
I suspect this is a recording, rather than sheet music. But
it shows that the references are out there, you just have
to search for them.
If NorthernLight doesn't find what you're after, try
AltaVista ( !http::/www.altavista.com/ )
The sheet music is in a book entitled "Boogie Woogie Piano Styles" by Sharon Pease. The call number is MT239.P42
Depending on where you're emailing from (UK or US), you may be able to find it locally. Of course, the Sharon Pease book has been out of print for over 60 years, so you'll have to find the book in a library collection.
