The Very Best of Boston (Pvg) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is not up to pop music industry standard. This is not even a guitar book. These are not the transcriptions with guitar tabulature that would facilitate learning these songs, these are the usual "piano arrangements with vocal line" that don't have the actual music that was performed, only chord summaries and general simplifications, etc., for three-finger piano playing (seldom more than four fingers distributed between two hands are required). As much as Tom Scholz supposedly cares about his music, you'd think he'd get the real thing out there; then maybe there'd be more performances of his music. What's missing are, among other things:

1) Retuning (scordatura) schemes, with and without capos, such as used for example on "Peace of Mind."
2) Any hint of the actual guitar solos; the notes represented are just easy-piano versions of these, and are not even close to the real things.And the signature Boston parallel-thirds dual guitar writing is far from faithfully represented; sixths are used just as often, leaving you with the same amount of grunt work if you want to find the real sounds.
3) Tabulature for same; in fact, again, there is no tabulature whatsoever.

If you want to get the songs out and play some first position chords while you screech to yourself, playing one level, but not more than one level, above "air guitar," letting your long hair fall forward dramatically over your guitar, 'cept when you sweep it up really cool and dramatically, while you rock out, feel it, and achieve inner space, unable to detect that you don't sound one whit like Boston, then, buy this book. But if you want to actually play Boston, this is one time you'd better "worry 'bout what you [are] missing."

Teach Yourself to Play Electronic Keyboard Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you have learned or studied some music theory then this book is OK.If you haven't you might get lost in the theory as the book "presumes" that you know some theory.The lesson plans are good and I believe that by the time you get all the way through the book you would know how to play keyboard. I am taking lessons from a piano teacher as well as using this book, and I have some music theory training. If theory is completely new to you then I would suggest a keyboard book in the "For Dummies" line; or find someone who can explain basic theory to you. It does help to have some theory knowledge as it helps with rhythm & tempo in your playing.

Play Piano By Ear (Book & CD) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The book should be titled how to play G7 chords. Most of the book is how to play standards-you know like Ellington and such. Oh, it teaches you,um, G7....G9...G... and G13-terrible sounding chords. And it comes with a CD where he plays, but it does not match the songs he uses in the book

The Keyboardist's Picture Chord Encyclopedia (Piano Book) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is a timely resource for anyone who has to deal with chord symbols--such as is found on rhythm charts and lead sheets-- and wants to know how to play them on the piano or keyboard. It even could help an arranger who has landed on a chord he likes but doesn't know what to call it.
This book has a Chord Construction section at the beginning, consisting of a review of the role that scales play, intervals, chords, inversions, altered triads and chord names. That's just 4 pages, so it doesn't bog down there. Next follows the major section of the book, which consists of *78* major and minor chords for each of the 12 notes of the scale. Each chord is depicted with what the chord looks like on a staff, what it would look like on a keyboard (the affected keys are shaded), and what its chord symbol typically would be. In the key of C, for example, you'd see everything from a plain old "C" chord to something like "C13 b5 #9" (whew!).
The final section of the book deals with what the left hand could do against the chords (whatever they are and against whatever rhythms your RH might be playing them). It provides info about such styles as boogie-woogie, funk, jazz & blues, swing, latin, rock and shuffle. There are multiple possible LH rhythms given for each of those, giving you variety in your possible choices. There also are multiple depictions of combination RH/LH patterns for rhythm & blues, gospel, country and rock.
This is one of those resource books that you like to have handy in your music library, for when you need it you'll probably REALLY need it right then!
