Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The Randy Newman Guitar Songbook is a wonderful collection of Newman's most popular (by Randy Newman's standards!) and acclaimed songs. Would be of value for any musician, as it contains several songs not found in the Randy Newman Anthology Vol. 1 or Vol. 2 folios, but it's especially a treat for his guitar playing fans. The selection of material is first-rate, spanning Newman's career from his first LP through his recent work for Pixar Films. It includes his vintage but incredibly timely classics "Political Science" and "Louisiana, 1927", among other timeless gems. According to the publisher's notes, Randy had a direct hand in developing this folio, including song selection and approval of the charts. Newman's classically inspired piano style is nicely suited to the guitar, as seen in several of these transcriptions, and his rock/shuffle material also works smoothly. The arrangements are mostly intermediate level, incorporating very nice authentic chord voicings and accurate melodies for all the essential riffs.Arranged in standard notation and guitar tablature, the material is easily accessible for both the studied and the casual guitarist. The riffs are great fun to play, but it's also rewarding just to play the accompanying chords in their proper voicing. This book seems like a can't miss for any Randy Newman fan, and is highly recommended. Be nice to your guitarist pals and turn them on to it, they'll thank you.
