5.0 out of 5 stars Finally!, November 25, 2002

By	Thomas Lhamon (Flat Rock, MI United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

After spending two years trying to figure them out by ear and using the few poorly done transcriptions on the internet, Jeff is finally paid his due with a very complete set of transcriptions of his music. It always amazes me how simple it is to play something that was impossible to figure out by ear. Also, because Jeff had a tendency toward alternate tunings, this book is a big eye-opener. A must have for Jeff Buckley fans. It also has the most accurate lyrics I've found so far as well.

3.0 out of 5 stars difficult for beginners, April 15, 2003

By A Customer

as a beginning guitarist, i found that this book wasn't nearly as easy to read as the other jeff buckley tab book "Jeff Buckley: Grace & Other Songs" (ISBN 0711977747). For example, each song should list ALL of the chords that are used in the song, not just some of them. Also, i found some of the fonts a little small and hard to read while playing. Perhaps a more advanced guitarist would have less trouble using this book.
However, I still give it 3 stars because there aren't many Jeff Buckley guitar tabs, so something is definitely better than nothing!

5.0 out of 5 stars So much talent, so little time..., March 10, 2003

By	Edward Gallagher (Monroe, MI United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This collection gives an evenhanded overview of the two studio releases with the remaining near-third encompassing songs from his live and/or EP releases. As my 'neighbor up the road' has alluded, the alternate tunings certainly sheds light on some previously puzzling arrangements. Had to have this one as soon as I realized it had been published and only wish that this was a 6 or 7 album retrospective and that Jeff was still exploring the outer sonic boundaries of passion and 'Grace'... Play guitar? Love Jeff's music? Pick this one up, okay?
