2.0 out of 5 stars Not very well known songs, December 22, 2004

By	scottyboy - See all my reviews

I will first say that i am partly at fault for this unsuccessful purchase. I bought this book blindly because wasn't able to see the table of contents to view the song list. Nor did Amazon.com list the songs available in this book. I figured that with "120 best known Christmas songs", how could any of the common popular songs be left out. Well, if you're looking for Frosty the Snowman, Silver Bells, The Little Drummer Boy, Here Comes Santa Claus, Jingle Bell Rock, Sleigh Ride, The Christmas Song (chestnuts roasting..), and some other REALLY well-known songs, DON'T LOOK HERE CUZ THEY AINT HERE. But songs like, "The Boar's head Carol", "The Friendly Beasts", "Pat-a-Pan", "Wassail Wassail", and "Bring a torch Jeannette, Isabella" are all here if you want them. I would not list these songs and more VERY obscure songs as "best known" at all. So be warned.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, great songs, December 7, 2007

By	black gorilla "book lover extraordinaire" (Cocoa, FL) - See all my reviews

This an easy piano book that gives you so much more than the EZ Play books do. They give intros and not just the chorus that one usually gets in the EZ Play books because their notes are so much larger. I've found new-to-me songs that I love to play and are gorgeous, plus arrangements with additional notes and chords that give an added depth to your music. I have nothing against EZ Play books for beginners, but I've graduated past them and the easy piano books are a marvelous find.
