5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome., September 27, 2007

By	Fridgecrisis - See all my reviews

This book is awesome. It's got all the standard album songs. If you know how to read chord charts and know what the songs sound like, you can pick up Screaming Infidelities, Turpentine Chaser, or Living in Your Letters very quickly. If you don't, there's a page in the back that explains stuff. Some of the other songs are more difficult, but the book makes it as easy as possible. It sounds just like the album, if you get the tuning right - at least four songs use a tuning that sounds like a D5 chord with all strings open (which is why those songs are pretty easy). You can play along and won't be able to tell the difference. If it's just you and your acoustic guitar and you wanna play something, pick this book up. You won't be disappointed.

I play and write a lot so seeing how Chris Carrabba uses different tunings in his songs made me think of some new ideas. So far all the transcriptions have been accurate and helpful. Good stuff.
