5.0 out of 5 stars Great Tab - From a ABB fan, July 6, 2000

By 

Steve Brockett - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Allman Brothers Band - The Definitive Collection for Guitar - Volume 1 (Paperback)

I ordered all three volumes of the ABB: Ultimate Guitar Collection and received the first and third yesterday. The first thing that struck me about the books is that they include the tab and music for the full versions of the songs that were recorded at Filmore East! They include all the guitar parts, including sometimes 4 guitars and they state which is Duane and which is Dickey for the main parts (most may not need that, but I like it for some songs). Since I just received them yesterday, I haven't been over everything, but what I have seems to be quite faithful to the recordings. For instance, "Blue Sky" is right on and more accurate than the tab for it that I have seen on the web. "Whipping Post" is true to the version released on Filmore East. One reason that I got this was that there is very little ABB tab on the web, unlike other bands, and this collection has all their tunes. I can't wait for the second volume and "Mountain Jam". I just got a Fender Blues Jr and now get a decent sound for the Brothers tunes. This collection is for the guitarist that likes to use tab or music and loves the Brothers. To be complete, I should mention the draw backs. Some guitar books have the bass tab too. This doesn't. It's just guitar, but it does have the chords and any good bass player ought to be able to play along having those. Ditto for the drums. This to me is not enough reason to rate this lower than 5 stars. The title is well deserved.

The Allman Brothers Band - The Definitive Collection for Guitar - Volume 1

These type of music books are not made to use. You cannot open them (or set them on a music stand) to play the music. The spine on this one broke after about the first hour.

Some good music though not as many of the old song as I prefer.
