advice on Bach recordings

hey folks can anybody recomend a recording of J.S.Bach on guitar or harpsichord that has "Minuet in G Major" and "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" on the same recording? I may be a folkie but I still love Bach's melodies

Jim Couza on 'Jubilee' I think, does both pieces on a hammered dulcimer - only time I've ever really wanted to listen to Bach, I'm afraid Jesu Joy has never been the same since as a young chorister I had to sing it 3 times in one day at 3 different weddings..... It goes really well as a triple jig.....

It may not be 'Jubilee', but I'm pretty sure it is....

Both recordings on the same CD would be difficult to find. I have an excellent version of Jesu Joy Of Mans Desiring by Liona Boyd on guitar; and Andrew Davis conducting the English Chamber Orchestra. I love Linoa's personal style rather than her technical ability. John Williams does a very nice rendition of the same piece.. Yours, Aye. Dave
