Music Theory for Guitarists: Everything You Ever Wanted to Know But Were Afraid to Ask (Guitar Method)
Tom Kolb
Hal Leonard
, 2005
Excellent
Tells you all about music theory as it relates to guitar. This won't give you any riffs. That's not the point of the book. It explains music theory as it applies to the guitar and gives you a framework in which to create those riffs. It works very well as a ...

This has got to be the best $7 you could invest in developing piano playing talents. The exercises are not easy and playing them seems a lot like work. However, if you are serious about wanting to improve your playing skills, the exercises in this book will do that ...

Heaven and Hell: My Life in the Eagles (1974-2001)
Don Felder
Wiley
, 2008
Very revealing read, and very fair
Don Felder's story is revealing yet fair. One can detect joy, sadness, chagrin in his look back at his life with the Eagles, but almost no animosity at all. It is an effort in a meditative manner, telling things the way he saw it, with no attempt at excuses - even for ...

, 2002
Maybe the best method book...
Been wrestling with the guitar (acoustic & electric) for longer than I want to admit (like the saying goes, it's an easy instrument to play---badly!) but I have fun so what the hey. Anyway, along the way I've amassed a variety of guitar books/dvd's; IMHO this is ...

I bought this book for my daughter - in paperback, hardback, coloring book, etc.! This was her all-time favorite book growing up and now I'm buying it for her newborn son! That makes me really think this is a book "for generations".
Home: A Memoir of My Early Years
Julie Andrews
Hyperion
, 2008
"Somewhere in her youth, she must have done something good"
By now, most everyone who wishes to read this book knows many of the details. But to me, there are two extraordinary things that have become obvious about Dame Julie. First, she writes this book much like she speaks. It's as if she were reading it to me in her own ...
Blue Moo: 17 Jukebox Hits From Way Back Never
Sandra Boynton
Workman Publishing Company
, 2007
Blue Moo
We love Blue Moo. My only problem with Amazon is that I wanted to order 6 copies for my grandchildren and it would only let me get one at a time. I felt ripped off a little because of the shipping charges - that would mean I would have to pay it 6 times. So, I am ...
The Piano Handbook: A Complete Guide for Mastering Piano
Carl Humphries
Backbeat Books
, 2002
meep meep
This book is great. It does cover a lot of topics but should not be used by a complete beginner, due to its pace. The readers that will benefit most have already read one or two theory books but consider their performance lacking. There are a lot of exercises; You ...

Adult All-In-One Course: Lesson-Theory-Technic: Level 1

Alfred Publishing Company
, 1994
Accompaniment CD is not flawed, in fact it can be very useful if used correctly. Read carefully
Some reviews here say the CD is flawed because the recordings are not solo piano demonstrations and can be confusing for the learner. I do not agree with those reviews. Here is why; On each piece, the background accompaniment instruments are heard on the left channel ...
