I recently heard Brent Mann interviewed on the radio here in Chicago and he was really informative, insightful and funny, as is his book. Several highlights for me from this book: 1. The section on Peter Gabriel's classic "Solsbury Hill" --...

Thumbs up for filling me in on the meaning behind the "Beds are Burning" lyrics.

Thumbs down for crediting "God Save the Queen" to the Clash. It is by the Sex Pistols, which even the most casual music fan would be able to research...

I think this is a great book and shows really strong points about songwriting. Personally, I love Andrea Stolpe's book a little bit more, but they both were great to have in your collection. It might take you a few reads, but you will start to...

Bring the parachute pants and frizzy hairstyles of the 1980's back! This book is a wonderful reference book for all the lyrics that you might be unsure of on those "familiar" songs! I love the fact that it is available in this pocket sized book...

I have the same type of songbook for the Beatles and I enjoy it. This one; however, just doesn't have it. The song choices overall are not good and that's at the root of my disappointment.

My son chose this book because of the variety of music here, songs by the beatles, Elton John, Billy Joel, Beach Boys, Van Morrison, and on and on... The score is moderate and most can be played by an intermediate student. His piano teacher...
