Songwriting: And the Creative Process : Suggestions and Starting Points for Songwriters

Rating:
Summary: Interesting and Informative
Review: "Songwriting and the Creative Process" has plenty of info on the nuts and bolts of writing commercially acceptable music. Song structure, rhyme and meter, and a good section on hearing musical intervals are included. There are headings under "Courting the Muse" I find interesting and informative, and problems such as "writer's block" are addressed. One thing that I liked was the overall layout of the book which is neatly broken into easily digestable bits. I may be a little overenthusiastic, but I'll give it five stars.
