AN EXTRA SONG YOU CAN'T FIND IN ANY OF HER OTHER BOOKS,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tori Amos: MTV Unplugged (Paperback)
I personally enjoyed the extra added pictures in this book. I am always dissapointed in the transcriptions because there dampen to Tori's ad lib. but, I guess it Lies in the conscience of the editor whom transcribed the music. However, you will not be disappointed with "Over the Rainbow", which is the only song you cannot find in any other Tori Amos Song Books. She played it exactly the way its written on the MTV Unplugged Segment. Other songs included are: Cornflake Girl, Blood Roses, Silent All These Years, Icicle, Caught A Lite Sneeze, Hey Jupiter, and In The Spring Time Of His Voodoo.

Some good, some a bit lacking, but all fun to play.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tori Amos: MTV Unplugged (Paperback)
This was the first Tori book I bought and I was not at all disappointed. First of all, the songs included are Cornflake Girl, Blood Roses, Silent All These Years, Icicle, Caught A Lite Sneeze, Over The Rainbow, Hey Jupiter, and In The Springtime Of His Voodoo. The transcriptions of Over The Rainbow, Cornflake Girl, Caught A Lite Sneeze, Hey Jupiter, and Icicle are absolutely superb. Although many people disagree with the practice of putting the melody into the accompaniment, as a pianist who cannot sing, I am thankful for it -- all of the songs other than Hey Jupiter double as piano solos for those of us who don't want to desecrate Tori's songs by trying to sing them. ;) On the other hand, In The Springtime Of His Voodoo is just about unbearable with its piano lines stripped down to, at most times, one or two notes and doesn't come close to the LP recording. The other songs are all moderately well-done. I would recommend this book on the whole, however, as the rhythms are great and flow nicely and the songs are definitely fun to play, especially if you can find someone to sing with you. I'm not at all sorry I bought it.

This review is from: Tori Amos: MTV Unplugged (Paperback)
Very simplistic and basic transcriptions. Some of which, including Icicle, are lovely. It's also good for arrangements for people who don't sing and play at the same time. Actually, it's not difficult to plat from this book at all! :)
