use on your I pad – I play the recorder and there are a lot of songs that I like in this book. I put it on my I pad and it works great. I can even enlarge the page so I can sit further back than I usually do.

A very thick book has inadequate comb binding. – The pages are loose because the plastic binding quickly failed.

A SONG LIST – Table of contents from ONE of the editions. (Check first!!) – When I first posted this list on September 25, 2004, I got the Table of Contents from the Hal Leonard Web site, but I did not know that they would publish later editions while apparently using the same ISBN number! The songs listed now at the H.L. site DIFFER from this list here. But I am leaving this list as a reference to the edition listed there when I first posted here.

VERY disappointed – Based on many positive reviews I bought this book with enthusiasm. But I’m severely disappointed. There are a plethera of mistakes with notes, key’s, sharps and flats. Yes, it has a ton of great songs, incluing about 70% of my all-time favs. However, most of the songs the songs I know, like the back of my hand, are riddled with mistakes. And with many songs, the written music misses the melody entirely. Just to make sure I wasn’t crazy I played a few for my husband, who said it sounded like a second-grader had written the music. (My apologies to second-graders who are gifted and play beautifully.)

It’s a big book – I’d prefer larger print – I’d say a good value – I put an Amazon Fresh 18 count egg carton in 3 pics for perspective. It’s a big heavy book. I’d prefer larger print but with acute logic I gather that would mean less songs in the same size book so anyway… The binding is flimsy plastic. I put a pic showing it with a tuning fork and a soprano sax mouthpiece just for the musical theme. I think I may split the book up as I’ve seen in another review.. Based on a rough count of the section of table of contents that goes by decades there are about the following number of songs from each decade: 1910’s with 20, 1920’s about 60, 1930’s about 135, 1940’s only about 70, 1950’s about 120, 1960’s about 120, 1970’s about 80, 1980’s about 35, 1990’s has 14 songs showing and 2000’s with 3 songs. I’m a boomer and just browsing the contents I recognize a fair number of titles. This may be repeat info but a reminder this being a “fake book” it does not have full piano scores, only the words, melody, and chord symbols. I’m giving the book 4 stars.

Lots of music – The book is great, the binding adequate. There are nearly 800 pages in a large plastic comb. Whoever ships these in the future need to understand that when you put a HEAVY plastic combed book, with that many pages, in a box large enough it can rattle around freely in transit, without any cushioning at all, it’s going to get beat up and damaged. The cover was slightly bent up on the corners and the last 100 pages separated from the comb. Covers on these books get beat up in use anyhow and I can take this to a place with a comb machine to have it reassembled, maybe with a better comb, but for the price one pays it should have arrived to me intact. Not going to bother to ship it back though and have another shipped since I can fix this for a small cost. Happy with the book, found a few small errors already in the music but pretty easy to figure out the right note so not a problem. Not too happy with the Amazon packaging.
