Summary: Very accurate, but bad tab
Review: The transcriptions in this book are 100% dead on, they play exactly like the CD, which is great if thats what you are looking for. However, they have one huge flaw in them.Many of the songs use a capo. The tab has the chords in both the key you are playing in, and the relative capo key, which is great. However, the tab is written as if you do not have a capo. For example, the first chord in "youve got a friend" is an A, but because of the capo at the second fret, you play a G. This would normally give you tab that had a 3 on the lowest string, to play the G note, however, you are really on the 5th fret because of the capo. The tab has a 5, instead of the more intuitive 3. This makes it very difficult to play, because you have to constantly transpose the notes as you are playing.

Summary: James Taylor's Greatest Hits
Review: This book of sheet music is ideal for the acoustic guitar player who wants to learn more about the "James Taylor Style" of playing. Taylor uses many guitar chords in his songs that are not normally seen by the everage guitar player. Every song in this collection of his early hits has specific chord diagrams to help you through the difficult learning process. I have gotten many hours of pure enjoyment from this book and anticipate many years of the same. If you are a James Taylor fan, this is a "must buy." You will not regret it!
