2.0 out of 5 stars Authorized?, November 29, 1999

By A Customer

I am an immense fan of the great Robert Palmer. I bought this book not because I can play music but for a better idea of what the lyrics were to his songs. I was listening to my CD's of his and reading along in the book and to my astonishment, the lyrics did not make sense. They definitely conflicted with what I thought he was saying but, I figured this book must be correct. About a month later I purchased two more of Robert Palmer's CD's and was happy to find that they both came with lyrics. Many of the songs were the one's listed in the book. Much to my surprise, the lyrics differed. The book's lyrics seem to have been written by someone who was just writing what he or she heard. The sound of the words to Mr. Palmer's music and the lyrics that came with the CD's flowed verbatum. The words in the book are somewhat correct. They almost sound right but do not make sense. I was very disappointed. However, the actual music (notes) is accurate and it does have nice pictures of Robert Palmer. There was very little effort exerted into making sure the lyrics were accurate. That is why I give this book 2 stars. My concern is, was this book authorized and if so, by whom?
