Fantastic

I play piano by ear. My music-reading skills are very limited. Throw a couple of sharps or flats into the music and I'm completely lost. The EASY FAKE BOOK has its music written in the key of "C". No sharps. No flats. There are also no base notes, only the upper hand. Instead, this book provides the base chords. If you're an "ear-player" like me, you simply follow the notes with your right hand, and follow the base chords with your left. Piano playing has never been easier than this. There are 204 great songs in this book.

Fake book fun!

Emphasis on the word "Easy" it is exactly as the title suggests. Highly recommended.

Excellent!

This book has a great mix of songs from rock to showtunes, etc... When played, they sound good, not too oversimplified for me. All song are really in the key of C, which definitely makes it easier to read and play.

Excellent for Beginners

I'm new to the piano (and music notes in general). I find this book to be very very useful... plenty of songs to choose from.... an intro is provided for every song. Highly recommended.
