A 'must have' book A very useful book for gigs and other occasions. However, as already mentioned in other reviews the text size is a bit small and difficult to read from a certain distance. Perhaps future editions can be divided into two or more volumes and hence make each volume more compact and handy. On the whole, the ultimate fake book is a good investment. | ||
Great Piano fun! As a frustrated beginner, I found this book to be so much fun. Because of the ease with which it is written, it is encouraging to be able to sit and play and have the music sound as it should. I would recommend this to anyone from the beginner to the experienced as there is such a wide selection of songs to choose from in this one book. Great addition to any musician's collection. | ||
Great Great for people like me who love music but can't read it. It helps to make me sound good. I love it. | ||
Fake Book Review The Ultimate Fake Book: C Chord, 4th Edition This is a great book. Since I took a class on how to play music using the chording method, I have had so much fun playing music. My skills reading music as I was taught in piano lessons are not as good as I would like but with the Fake Books, I can play so many more tunes. I recommend this book. It has thousands of wonderful songs, old and new. | ||
Holy Hannah! Holy Hannah! I couldn't be more pleased! Seller indicated this was in "used" condition, but it looks brand new! I was especially delighted to see that it contained full diagrams of all chords in the back of the book--very helpful if for instance you don't know the finger placement for uncommon, off the wall chords such as Eb or Ab and their variations). I may not play all 1,200 songs listed (would probably have to take a week's worth of vacation to do so and end up with sore fingers..lol), but if I even only play 1/8th the songs, I know I got a big bang for my buck (I paid $23 for the book and most song books cost that much if not more and only have 20-30 songs). I can't wait to play songs for my friends and family at gatherings! | ||
