Extremely disappointed by lack of piano score April 24, 2009
Brian James
The obvious reaction to this review's title is: "Well, what would you expect? It's a guitar TAB edition". Let me explain myself.
I was extremely disappointed to see that NO piano has been included in this transcription of the album. The question is: should one expect it to have been? I would argue YES based on a few points:
1) This album includes plenty of piano, and piano is an integral part of the music. Consequently, there are *massive* holes in the transcription, and you end up paying quite a lot of money for what is really only half a transcription. "Good Enough" - a piano song - has the note attached "*Chord frames are suggested. There is no guitar on this recording". So you get the vocal melody, guitar chords and a whole lot of disappointment.
It seems to me to be a real half job having only half of various songs transcribed - if I were the one transcribing, I would never be happy with myself or the product.
2) Maybe I've just been spoilt before - but all the Muse "Guitar TAB editions" have all the guitar AND piano parts - because like Evanescence, the transcription would be extremely incomplete without the piano parts. If this transcriber can come to the party, then it just makes me feel that others could also - and that this is just way below par.
3) The publisher has not enabled the Amazon "Search Inside" feature - perhaps because everyone browsing would see the gaping holes, and decline to purchase this title. As I am the first to review, there was no way to know that half the music is not transcribed - and I just expected to see what I have in all my other "Guitar Tab" books - full transcriptions.
Evidently, if you want the piano and guitar - then be willing to be ripped off and purchase both versions of the albums transcription. In my opinion, this is extremely poor.
I'm not going to comment on the quality of the guitar Tab - I'm sure someone else can comment - I just won't purchase another title from this publisher.
