Well Written October 9, 2009 BeckySuesPlace (Greensburg, PA) The Beatles Fake book's melodies are well written and have accurate chords. There are over 100 songs in the book! Buying the Beatles Fake book is a good investment.
Quick findings April 13, 2009 Zep O'Cape (Jyväskylä, Finland) Every now and then a need arises for an instant learning of some of the Beatles' songs. A friend of mine who is a known Finnish specialist in Beatles music told me about this fake book telling it is not even a new one, but good. Having received the book from Amazon I found it really is The Book for me and other guys of the band. Music is written close enough to the originals to keep us on a true path of these master pieces.
Warning - tiny type! May 20, 2008 Sam (Alabama) I already own Complete Scores and a 1987 "Beatles Complete", but I bought this so I would have something to use in performance, to cue me on lyrics and music without any page turns. Surprise: the arrangements are in such tiny print that it's virtually impossible to use this in performance as a fake book. You just can't read the words unless your face is only a few inches from the book, with perfect lighting. I would gladly have paid more if they'd laid out each song on 2 facing pages, but instead they usually cram 3 songs on those 2 facing pages. Compare this to the Real Book, which is thicker because it is typeset so you can actually use it in performance as a fake book.
The Beatles music? 5 stars, of course. The arrangements here? Good enough, the ones I've bothered to hunch over and read; 4 stars. The layout and usefulness of this book for its advertised purpose? 1 star.
All the songs in a neat little package April 5, 2008 I. C. Hendrick No guitar-playing Beatles fan should be without this book. It is hands down a great fake book and well worth the money. I had to rebuy this after my other copy got soaked in a rainstorm. What I really like is that it has all the songs, most of them fit onto one page, and it sits easily on a stand. Perfect for sharing with a band or photocopying for others. My one criticism is that the chords are not always correct, though they maybe close enough in some cases. The melodies, as far as I can tell, are spot on. This is a great complement to The Beatles Complete Scores, for when you need to find out what that chord really is.
Fabulous Fake Book March 28, 2008 Glenn Martin (Toronto, Ont, Canada) I first purchased this book about 20 years ago but it gradually wore out and I had to replace it as it is indespensable for both the professional and the novice. I highly recommend this fake book and will continue to use mine for years to come. I even bought one for my nephew who is also into the Beatles. I believe it is good for instruction as the Beatles played in many different keys. It is great for learning chords. You simply cannot go wrong with this book!
