Rating:  - good music but arranging....This is a good book to own, and I enjoy playing the songs in it. I can't say much about the chords since I use the melody lines on my mandolin, but my sister plays them on her guitar and they are well matched with the song. :D One correction for the book, using the melody line, the notes are not what the cds sound like. This is because its an 'easy guitar' book, so the publishers did not want it arranged with too difficult of notes. The tones are the same, but the note value is not like the song John Denver played. Once you've heard the cds, its nothing to just play the notes the way they are supposed to sound using their straight quarter notes on the page. It is a very good book, and to use two instruments in it is really nice. I reccomend the book for easy to memorize campfire songs. Rating:  - Original high hopes were quickly disapointedAs a two month beginner, the "easy guitar" book was not as helpful as I expected it to be. It did not include tablature along with the notes nor effective strum patterns. In the current format, it would have helped if a CD were included. A useful example for me is the "100 Greatest Songs of Rock & Roll" by Hal Leonard. Rating:  - John Denver Anthology Easy GuitarOverall this is a good book, but doesn't exactly match the recorded versions of some of the songs, probably because this book is labeled easy guitar, the chords used in this version are easier to form. I think from a book I had years ago and now with all the moving can't locate, that Rocky Mountain High was originally played with a capo on the first fret. Some of the other songs were different also. I recommend this book if you are beginning guitar or maybe in between beginning and intermediate or if you just like John Denver's songs. Rating:  - InaccurateComparing several of the scores in this book with the actual music from John Denver's albums it appears quite inaccurate. In fact in several places (for example the score for Fly Away) entire parts are missing (especially the lead in and extro parts) and some measures that should be rests for guitar instead show parts that belong to the violin accompaniment. Still nice as a starting point for your own versions of his music, but not to be taken as an accurate rendition. Rating: - Great Complilation Minus OneA combination of super easy chords and a good mix of songs. Some songs the chords seemed overly simplistic. And they did not put in Sweet Surrender which is one of John's best songs. Still for a John Denver fan it has most of what you would want, especially if you wing the songs like me. |
