Book Reviews of The Fiddler's Fakebook
Book Review: Good book for fiddlers, guitarists, tin whistle players, etc
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is being used in a beginning Celtic music class I'm helping with. It has many, many standard Celtic tunes, and the guitar chords that go with them. It is by no means limited to Celtic, having a more than generous selection of old-time tunes as well. Excellent bonus: each song has a reference or two to a recorded source, so you can hear the way it's done by pros. The only negative is that occasionally the version of the tune (or its transcription) is over-simplified, or, in some cases, a non-standard version. If you are looking for a book with music you can use all around the acoustic folk music scene, this one must be highly recommended.
