4.0 out of 5 stars Very good, but full of tracks that are difficult to find, May 11, 2007
By M. Packham "Stuart" (Perth, Western Australia Australia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This second volume of Randy Newman sheet music is of the same high quality that Volume One was. The transcriptions are accurate and each song is detailed in the key it was recorded in. There are some excellent selections in this book, including 'Laugh and Be Happy', 'My Life is Good', 'Make Up Your Mind', 'The Ballad of the Three Amigos' and the two instrumental tracks from 'Avalon' and 'Awakenings'.

Perhaps the only 'problem', if you can call it that, is that the selections are mainly from particular movie soundtracks. I am a huge fan of Randy's songwriting and have all of his albums (including the box-set 'Guilty', which does have some of the film scores reproduced on Volume 2); however, I have not tracked down the soundtracks from 'Monsters Inc', 'Toy Story' and 'James and Giant Peach', for example. Further, the theatre piece 'The Education of Randy Newman' is, to the best of my knowledge, not available for public release. There is a song in the Volume 2 anthology called 'Stupid Little Songs' which is from that theatrical piece; however, given its unavailability, we really have no idea (apart from the how the music reads on the page) how Randy sings it or how it should go. Therefore, half of the music in this book is kind of inaccessible, in a sense of the word. You will need to be diligent to hunt down the other tracks that are not as easily accessible should you wish to play the music in Volume 2 as confidently and assuredly as you would with the music in Volume 1.

Nevertheless, it's Randy, and he writes well. I love his music and any addition to his sheet music ouevre is welcomed with open arms.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Collection of Randy Newman songs, November 9, 2006
This collection of Randy Newman tunes is excellent, and a must-have for any Randy Newman fan interested in Randy's film work, or his knack for writing great songs. Buy it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Some Hard-To-Find Songs, August 11, 2009
This anthology has some songs that are hard to find anywhere else.

I would've given this 5 stars, but I've already found a lyric mistake in the first song I've looked at, which is Blue Shadows. Of course, almost every songbook in existence has lyric mistakes, so it's not a big deal.
