    Excelente Libro
    Aunque es el segundo album de Dream Theater muchos lo consideramos como el primero
    El que tiene muchas notas dificiles en Guitarra
    Metal Progresivo
    Y esta transcrito por John Petrucci directamente
    Es decir CERO Errores
    Se los recomiendo
    Pronto pudiera estar fuera de venta ya que es viejo album

    The greatness of the best band to play this album is undeniable. I notice that the arppegiation in measure 25-30 in metropolis part one is a little off. Can you listen to the licks and riffs that Petrucci hammers out without wetting your pants? I know i can't. This book is a must have, a guide to prog metal on the guitar. And the cover is surrealistic and schweet.

    An excellent tab book; easy to read and understand. Besides a few errors in the tab itself (fret numbers on the wrong string etc.) and some mistakes with the lyrics (its really quite funny how wrong they are in some places) I can't see anything wrong with this book. A must for anyone who just can't seem to get Metropolis, or any other song off this album to sound right on their own.

    I absolutely love Dream Theater, in any shape or form, and their books are one of the forms that I especially appreciate. Any Dream Theater book is a good buy, since they help to teach John Petrucci's technique and style to any budding young guitarists out there. I am very disappointed though, that there are many errors in the Images And Words: Guitar Tab book that other people may not have noticed. For example, the lyrics to the majority of the songs are shockingly incorrect, and there are a number (at least 3 or 4 that I can think of) places where the fret numbers have been put on the wrong string (which is easily seen by checking the standard notation), and some of the tab just doesn't quite sound right. Overall, however, I was pleased with this book since despite its downfalls, it helps to teach students a better way of playing, performing, and even writing/composing music. I give this book 4 stars, the errors counting for 2 stars lost, and the excellence of the band giving 1 star back. Buy this book, along with Awake and Falling Into Infinity!! By the way, if anyone has any queries about certain areas of this book they are stuck on, or needs assistance with some of JP's techniques, I can play the entire IAW, Awake, and FII books, and will gladly help.

    This tab book is a MUST have for any talented guitar player out there. Petrucci has a style that will humble the most learned of players, and you will learn some of the greatest licks and phrasings that I, personaly, have ever seen.
