(More customer reviews)I had this book 25 years ago. Now I am teaching piano and this theory lesson book is still the same; which is great! So glad to see it still has removable pages for easy lesson work. Highly recommend and would buy this item again.

Product Description:
Time honored and time tested, the Theory Lessons book has earned a face lift. Completely re-engraved, with color highlights on each page, the book is fresh and new-looking, while retaining the valuable theory studies which have made it an indispensable tool in studios across the land. Pages are perforated for optional removal from the book, allowing the teacher the opportunity to send home just a page at a time if desired. Progression of skill building is logical and easily presented. This is a theory book that takes a minimum of lesson time, a definite plus.

John W. Schaum Piano Course: A-The Red Book : Leading to Mastery of the Instrument Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I used the older version of this book when I was a child and it was excellent.Easy to read and understand.Perfect for learning to play the piano if you want to go at your own pace.I had a private instructor as well but the book was the key to my lessons. I have almost the entire collection but they are a bit out-dated so I plan to buy the new ones soon for my own review, and also so I can teach my kids to play when they are old enough. I loved the John W. Schaum series.Note: These books aren't really theory based so if you intend to teach yourself, you'll also need a book to really teach you the basics (Tip: I used the AB Guide to music theory by Eric Taylor, it's alittle difficult to find now though), once you master the theory, you'll be on your way to playing tons of songs. Fun fun fun!!!

Craig Dobbins' Hymns for Fingerstyle Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Craig Dobbine' "Hymns For Fingerstyle Guitar" is the best music book/cd I have seen. It is challenging, but the rewards of sounding like the cd are great.I chose one piece and practiced for 1 month....and I am only about 2 months from performance quality.Craig has another book/cd combo that I will purchase in about a year. Nice job, Craig!

DVD-Learn To Play The Songs Of John Denver #3 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is Pete Huttlinger's 3rd DVD of John Denver material. Everyone of the videos is highly recommended because Pete is an excellent teacher. There are many videos out there featuring great guitarists but although they may be great performers, they're not always great teachers. Homespun Tapes produced this set of DVD's and I understand that they are the most popular of their materials. I can't recommend the series any more highly.

Taylor Swift - Fearless - Piano/Vocal/Guitar Artist Songbook Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book arrived in new condition, and it is not very hard to play. I've been playing the piano for about 4 years, and the piano parts are basically just the notes to the lyrics, plus some chords and stuff. It's really nice to play along with a guitar and sing. =)

While My Guitar Gently Weeps : The Music of George Harrison (Book) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Anytime a major rock star has several books written about him, they are all basically rehashing the same information under a different title.This book "Then Music Of George Harrison", by Simon Leng, is without question the ultimate reference work on the recorded works of George Harrison.Every album and every single song George ever recorded, is given encyclopedic treatment.No stone is left unturned, as chart rankings, session players, and historical significance of his music is discussed in detail like never before.George's monumental album "All Things Must Pass", is given a 34 page chapter alone, as the author tells of tales from the musicians who participated in the recording, as well as the making of the album, which still stands today as one of the greatest albums in rock history.I found this book to quite an enjoyable read, and a must have edition to any rock n roll library.Beatle fans take note that this is essential!

Product Description:
Far from being "the quiet one," George Harrison was a writer and arranger of terrific power and beauty, and his guitar playing was fundamental to the Beatles' sound and success.Now fully revised and expanded, this new edition of While My Guitar Gently Weeps: The Music of George Harrison is the most comprehensive evaluation of George Harrison's musical career ever published. Treating each of Harrison's songs with unprecedented analysis, author Simon Leng reveals Harrison's eclectic approach - from teenage Nashville twang through Indian raga, psychedelia, gospel, soul, and pure pop - and thoroughly defines Harrison's role in the Beatles. First-hand accounts of the Concert for Bangladesh and the making of All Things Must Pass take the reader deep into the most fertile and controversial periods of Harrison's long solo career that culminated with Brainwashed.Enhanced with insights from key figures who worked closely with Harrison throughout his extraordinary career, While My Guitar Gently Weeps is a remarkably stirring study and portrait of a great artist whose musical and spiritual quest changed the lives of millions of people around the world while redefining popular music and rock 'n' roll.
