Great value! cas This book is an excellent value, but be warned the songs are not 100% accurate. Aside from the usual "fake book" shorthand, there are some omissions (typos?) While some songs have overly detailed implied chords laid out, others are missing some transitional chords. If you know the tune, you'll be able to figure it out. However, it is not always possible to just run through the song & have it sound good on the 1st go - you will have some translating/ extrapolating to do. That said, it is still a heck of a value, 700 songs for under $30 bucks!Also, it is very heavy on older son. If you like country music, you have got to love this book. Burton R. Clarke I love this book because, unlike other books with lots of songs, I actually am familiar with the majority of these songs. They aren't just fillers. I think all 700 were at the top of the charts when I was growing up, and some aren't very old either. This is a huge book, somewhere between 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick. I bought mine used, and it was a little bulkier perhaps because some moisture had gotten to the edges of the pages, but the book is spiral bound and designed to lie flat. I wanted to see what it was like before I sprung for a Kindle version. I would recommend this boo. Pleased with song selections which included most all of old Pleased with song selections which included most all of old country and some new country songs. Music easy to see from a distance. Book is quite heavy to carry around but we'll worth the price!
