More About the Author

Cynthia Weil is best known as the lyricist of such classic songs as "On Broadway", "Just Once", Here You Come Again", "Somewhere Out There", "Don't Know Much", "He's So Shy", "We Gotta Get Out Of This Place' and "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling", the most played song of the 20th century. Collaborating with her husband, Barry Mann and others, she has written countless standards. Weil has been inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (only the 3rd woman to receive this honor in the non performing category), has been honored with multiple Grammy nominations and two Grammy awards for "Somewhere Out There" which won Motion Picture Song Of The Year and Song Of The Year.
She has now branched out to writing prose and it is fitting that "Rockin' Babies" her first published book be music related. She has completed a young adult novel and is now immersed in her second.

4.0 out of 5 stars I Like It But...., August 1, 2006

This review is from: The Mann-Weil Songbook (Paperback)
I was very happy to have received this book. As a tremendous Mann and Weil fan, a compilation of Mann and Weil songs were LONG overdue! Great selection of songs, but I wanted more. However, the price for this book really can't be beat. The down side here is that many (possibly all) of the songs were in the wrong key. Unfortunately this is more common than not in these songbooks. The chord progressions appeared to be correct though. This book is aimed towards the pianist; chord diagrams are available for guitarists but I question many of the voicings of those chords, as I am a guitarist of close to 24 years.
