Best of Metallica

Summary: Interesting, but not all the songs play well
Review:

This book consists of 12 songs: One, Harvester of Sorrow, Welcome Home (Sanitarium), Nothing Else Matters, The Unforgiven, Enter Sandman, Until It Sleeps, Fade to Black, Seek and Destroy, The Thing That Should Not Be, Sad But True and Mama Said.

Basically, some of the songs play a lot better than others. The more recent ballads like NEM and Unforgiven are excellent on the piano, but Harvester, Seek and Thing just don't really translate well to the keyboard.

I think you'll enjoy at least half of this collection if you like Metallica and you've played the piano for at least a couple of years. It's not beginner music, but most of it is fairly straightforward to play. I was a bit disappointed at the transcription of some of the solos -- they leave some of them out -- then again, they were meant for guitar and not piano.

Summary: Jammin' out on Metallica
Review: This music book is well transcribed for the piano. Great for intermediate to advanced players that really like to rock-out on the piano (or keyboard) to the hard-hitting full power chords of Metallica. Follows the riffs and guitar sequences right along with the cd. Most are written in the same key that the band plays in, and if not, it tells you what the difference is. I love it. Who says you can't play heavy metal on a piano? :)
