This fake book has a very comprehensive listing of old time hymns, traditional spirituals, gospel songs of the past century and some contemporary praise songs. The type-face is small typical of fake books, and songs are crammed in. Lyrics and verses are included, as well as the chords. There is also a reference of guitar chord finger patterns at the end of the book. The entire book lays flat, having the plastic tabbed binding. Songs are listed alphabetically making them easy to find. Very nice reference, and songbook for all "C" instruments, as well as keyboards, vocals and guitar.
This is one of our family's favorite Christian song books. We use it pretty much every day. It is great for keyboard and guitar players. If you know chords it is great for the piano player too. (It only contains the notes for the right hand with the left hand chords to be played) All songs have the words to sing/Lyrics so you can sing as you play. It contains over 450 songs and gives you cues how to play the song. To play the song Tenderly, Prayerfully, Lively, Joyfully are just to mention a few. If you are looking for a song book to appeal to all types of people and skill levels this is the book for you.
Thirty years ago I kept a book call "Invitation to sailing" and have taught a few dozen people to sail using this book. It's simple and teaches what the student needs to learn. I don't know how many books I have given out but I do this so they never get off track. GOSPELS GREATEST does the same thing. I have used this book for about 6 years and love it. Everyone I play with wants one so I keep a few in stock and when it's birthday or Christmas time I'm ready and so far everyone is happy. Most of us has grown up with these beautiful songs. We find ourselves playing them at house parties, picknecks and jam sessions. Many people still remember the words and sing along. What a wonderful book this is. Terry
This book is recommended by our churches piano player, so when I recently bought a keyboard to try to teach myself to read music and play my hymns and church music at home , this is the the first book that I purchased. EVERYTHING is in here,with the exception that you get the melody line,chords, words but no bass cleft, so some of you more experienced players may find this below your level. For me, its perfect.
If you download this to a laptop to use as you travel for music, forget about it. The picture is to small to read even on a17 inch screen. I can not find anyway to make it larger and you can not print from this idiotic book.
Some of the songs are incomplete, i.e. chorus only without verses. I bought the book for one song, needing the complete version. The book description doesn't notate which are complete and which are chorus only versions. Since a customer can't examine the book prior to purchase, a better description of the contents is imperative.If your needs aren't that specific, this lead sheet book should be fine. However, if you buy this book needing a complete song, you may end up with only the chorus.
I have found more than a dozen songs that have glaring errors in the melody lines. No final proofreading was done, apparently. I have the original copies of most of these songs that have the errors to compare with.
This book has a very nice collection of hymns, gospel and spirituals and I got another one to give to a friend. As the others here commented, the backing on the book allows it to stay open without any problems. The music is normal size and the book includes four pages of guitar chords and fingerings. ( Twenty-two chords for each note of the scale. )
