• This Is Very Useful 01 October, 2008
This guy is very practical, good range of songs worth learning and playing.
Unlike other fake books I have. This one gives a layout of suggested chords with some variations, including note layout and fingering. I like it and found it a good learning aid.

• Powerful, Especially After Watching The Tv Shows 08 July, 2008
After struggling with trying to pick up the piano off-and-on over the years, i stumbled across Scott Houston's TV show on a local PBS station a couple of years ago. It was a revelation -- here was an approach to quickly learn songs i liked without trying to read sheet music note-for-note. After watching several episodes of the show, i purchased this book and enjoy it. Yes, some (or many) of the songs are not to my tastes, but even making use of just a dozen tunes is worth the price of admission. I am online today to buy the 2nd 'Fake Book' Scott Houston has produced.
Using lead sheets seems like a well-kept secret. You could probably find this book useful even without seeing the show, but see the show if you get a chance.

• Very Helpful, Nice Selection Of Songs 23 March, 2008
I really like this fake book as he includes the chord diagrams (beginner and advanced) at the top of every song. It is published by Hal Leonard so you get their familiar music layout. Melody, lyrics, and rhthym are displayed.
It has a nice selection of songs from broadway, jazz, pop, etc. My only gripe would be that it would have been nice to have a few modern pop tunes from the past decade but what can you do.
In short, it is one of the better fake book complilations I have seen, and should give me years of use.

• Fake Books 09 July, 2008
This product has a variety of songs that cover a range of music that should be appealing to everyone. If you want something simple so you can just start playing piano this is a good book to have.
