This book just goes to show how important it is to look for the little "Authentic Transcriptions" stamp that most guitar-book covers display. These transcriptions are downright LAZY, reducing key singles like "Steve McQueen," "Soak Up The Sun," and "C'mon C'mon" to a few composite arrangements and a "recall with variation" markings. Were they afraid they'd run out of room? Nowhere to be found on these three tracks are Crow's outstanding supporting vocals, which ONLY appear on "Weather Channel" and the straight-thirds of "It's So Easy."I never even stopped to think that a guitar book wouldn't include background vocals or note *SOME* alternate rhythms/patterns upon repeated recall -- in my experience it's unheard of. Then again, so is entirely ignoring the primary electric guitar on the opening track. Go figure. Mid-album rockers "Over You" and "Lucky Kid" seem to have escaped the narcolepsy of their transcriptionist, but don't let the multiple staves fool you: the production of this album is incredibly layered -- if I can find this many problems with it in 48-hours there are surely other missing parts that i just haven't tried to play yet. This book is a good jumping off point for your own arrangements, and perhaps a wonderful tool for the beginning guitarist, but you can probably find equally competent transcriptions for most of these songs on the internet for free. Save your money!
