Carole King - Tapestry

Rating:
Summary: This is a Song Book. Duh
Review: a very faithfully executed songbook. I'm writing a review to reiterate the fact that the annotation is very good. And to counteract statistically, the moron, who gave the book one star because the song book only had sheet music in it. That's what it is supposed to have.

Summary: Carole King Tapestry
Review: As I am researching Carole King for a scholarly paper, I ordered this book hoping there would be an introduction or preface with some history or information on her. Alas, there were only the song lyrics and music for piano and guitar--nothing else. Presentation of each song offers a page with the lyrics in poetry form preceding the sheet music which includes lyrics and music. I gave it a 1-star rating only because it didn't suit my purpose. I am sure anyone wanting just the sheet music for "Tapestry" would be very happy with it. Hopefully, I will find time to tackle learning to play her wonderful music once the paper is finished.

Summary: Good to have this music
Review: Hard to believe someone would rate a music book poorly because it wasn't a biography. Like ordering a hamburger and stiffing the waiter because it wasn't lobster. This music book is what it is supposed to be: the sheet music for a Carole King album masterpiece.

Summary: wake up! it's a songbook!
Review: This is a songbook, not a biography [!!!!]. As such, it serves its purpose wonderfully: the transcriptions are faithful, the lyrics are complete and the songlist corresponds with that of the album of the same title. Enough said. Warning: This is a songbook containing the music and lyrics for Tapestry, Carole King's album. If you're looking for another book, for example an annotated version of Hamlet or Julia Childs' best recipes, don't buy this songbook.
