Great songs to play for a party or for your own enjoyment: Georgia on My Mind, I Left My Heart in San Francisco, It's Impossible, My Funny Valentine, The Shadow of your Smile, The Way You Look Tonight, On the Street Where You Live, Honky-Tonk Train. ALL of the songs are excellent piano melodies sutable for the intermediate player.

This songbook has many of the great songs of my youth. The chords are easy, there are guitar chords written above the treble staff and the print is large enough for those of us over 50 to see. The arrangements are outstanding. I wish Readers' Digest would reprint this book. I'd buy it in a second. I have to borrow mine from the public library.

Great book for the intermediate pianist. It's one of my favorites. Reader's Digest needs to reprint it. I borrow it at the public library and would buy it if available.

I wish Reader's Digest would print some more of these books. It is such an excellent composite of popular music and the arrangements are fantastic. If anyone has a copy, I would love to buy it.

From "Somewhere, My Love" to "On Top Of Spaghetti", this book has so many songs that I find myself humming and wishing I could play. Did you like Sesame Street, Dr. Zhivago, The Godfather? Do you like showtunes? There's over a hundred of them here ... the breadth is part of the fun of the book!

This is a wonderful selection of music from the 30's to the 60's. Like other Reader's Digest's song books, it is a 'must have.' Large print, chord names given, and relatively easy arrangements.

I owned this book when it first came out many years ago.
I'm so pleased to have found it again on Amazon. Its perfert for
a "again" piano player that loves the classics of yester-year.
The book arrived as described and very fast.

I ordered three copies of the same song book on one day to share with friends. All 3 arrived in a timely manner, in better condition than I expected.

This used music book was advertisied in "like new condition" and I was disappointed. The edges of the pages had been wet at one time and were rippled and one of the pages had become separated from the binding. The page was still there but was loose and could actually be removed from the book. I was NOT satisfied with this vedor.

This used music book came to me in almost mint condition. Although 30 years old it is perfect. As far as the music is concerned these are very playable arrangements for the Adult Intermediate pianist. The collection provides many hours of pleasure and enjoyment.
