$$$ for ONE transcription!, November 17, 2001
This review is from: Rush -- Anthology: Includes Super TAB Notation (Sheet music)
I've bought a lot of music books. This is one of the worst I have ever bought. Not the worst, because Broon's Bane was actually transcribed accurately. ALL the other songs were incorrectly transcribed. We are not talking a few booboos here, we are talking completely wrong. The songs have notation for what the vocals perform, not what the guitar performs, which I guess could come in handy if the guitar was often used to replace the singer in Rush cover bands. Stangely enough, this is the same company that brought out actually acurate Rush transcriptions. Let me just re-iterate [...]

USELESS!!!!, November 28, 2003
This review is from: Rush -- Anthology: Includes Super TAB Notation (Sheet music)
If you're thinking that anything in this book is better than the stuff on the internet, let me save you some money!!!! There is NO REASONE WHATSOEVER to buy this book!! If warner brothers printed many of these, they're either going to have to give them away, or recoupe their costs by recycling them to print something worthwhile.

The Worst TAB Book I've Ever Bought, January 8, 2011
This review is from: Rush -- Anthology: Includes Super TAB Notation (Sheet music)
An utter waste of time and money. I don't know what they were thinking when they put this together (or what Rush's management was thinking either). Most of the songs simply transcribe the vocal melodies for guitar (why, I have no idea) while providing (sometimes accurate, sometimes not) chord charts.
Then, randomly, there are a couple of songs with complete, full tab transcriptions, like Broon's Bane and YYZ. But even then, the notation is bad. For instance, given all the complexity in YYZ, it never notes hammer-ons and pull-offs. It just gives you the notes for you to figure out yourself. You're much better off taking your chances with online tabs.
