Great American Country Songbook (Piano/Vocal/Guitar Songbook) Review

Great American Country Songbook [Paperback]
Average Reviews:

I bought this book for my husband - a classic country music lover and a guitar "picker".He was spent hours enjoying this book.I have anjoyed listening to him develop new skills and being serenaded.If you love classic country - you should buy this one.The chords are not for the stark beginner, but are still simple enough for those that are not highly accomplished.I love that it shows as well as names the chords, so if you don't know that chord you can easily figure it out.

John Denver - The Complete Lyrics (Book) Review

Overall I like this book. The foreword by Tom Paxton and the introduction by Milt Okun are well worth reading.The comments about the songs are the best part of the book as they tell about how these songs began and developed and the people and places that had such a strong influence on them.

The only dissapointment came from finding neither music or chording in the book which was not a fault of the book itself but rather of the limited information about the book that was available from the description

All in all this is a very good book if you are a John Denver fan and a great help to those of us who have a hard time remembering the words sometimes

An extremely gifted singer/songwriter, John Denver possessed the unique ability to marry melodic music with gentle, thought-provoking words that endeared him to his countless fans. Now, for the first time ever, John Denver's lyrics have been printed in their entirety: no other book like this exists! It contains lyrics to more than 200 songs, and includes an annotated discography (one that shows the songs), and an index of first lines. This collection also features a foreword by Tom Paxton, who was greatly influenced by Denver, and an introduction from Milt Okun, John Denver's first record producer, and the founder of Cherry Lane Music.

John Denver & The Muppets - A Christmas Together Review

John Denver & The Muppets - A Christmas Together [Paperback]
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
"Back by popular demand!" reads the blurb.In a manner of speaking, perhaps.Having lost my original copy of this book years ago, I was elated to see it in print again.Upon its arrival, however, I was extremely disappointed to find this edition significantly altered from its earlier counterpart.I've been a performing folk musician for more than half my life now, and I no longer find sheet music necessary.In fact, it was not for the sheet music that I purchased this folio, but for the gorgeous color production stills appearing in the old version.Much to my chagrin, this wonderful material had been omitted from the new collection, the blurb's claim of "great color photos" notwithstanding.Furthermore, those of you who were interested in this book for its musical content should be aware that these are not authentic transcriptions, nor is the entire body of selections from the former collection included.I can recommend the current edition to the John Denver completist only.

This Book was very helpful for anyone trying to develope that folk style especially the one Denver uses. This book goes over extensively folk patterns for strumming and finger picking that are useful for putting your own twist on a denver song. You can also employ that knowledge and play exactly like denver. on select songs they even tell you where to capo so you can sound exactly like the man himself. The author of the book has extensive credentials in guitar training and knows what he is doing. Overall for basic knowledge of denver's style of play this book is excellent and couldnt get any better.

John Denver Authentic Guitar Style (Guitar Personality) Review

John Denver Authentic Guitar Style [Paperback]
Average Reviews:

I thought this book would reveal how John himself played these songs. Especially I hoped to learn the authentic intros to songs like Country Roads or Poems, Prayers & Promises. What you get is an easy guitar book that anyone can play. The arrangements are mostly just picking standard chords. It's not much more than most players could figure out from words and chords without tabs. Annie's Song has the most authentic arrangement. This book is worthwhile if you are beginning to learn guitar and to read tabs. However, I can hardly call it "authentic" if you want to learn John Denver's style.
