Title: Excellent book by an excellent band.
Review: As with all Hal Leonard books, you will get the basic guitar and piano with lyrics. The book is, however, worth the money.

Title: Substandard Transcriptions
Review: This book is not up to pop music industry standard. This is not even a guitar book. These are not the transcriptions with guitar tabulature that would facilitate learning these songs, these are the usual "piano arrangements with vocal line" that don't have the actual music that was performed, only chord summaries and general simplifications, etc., for three-finger piano playing (seldom more than four fingers distributed between two hands are required). As much as Tom Scholz supposedly cares about his music, you'd think he'd get the real thing out there; then maybe there'd be more performances of his music. What's missing are, among other things:1) Retuning (scordatura) schemes, with and without capos, such as used for example on "Peace of Mind."2) Any hint of the actual guitar solos; the notes represented are just easy-piano versions of these, and are not even close to the real things. And the signature Boston parallel-thirds dual guitar writing is far from faithfully represented; sixths are used just as often, leaving you with the same amount of grunt work if you want to find the real sounds.3) Tabulature for same; in fact, again, there is no tabulature whatsoever.If you want to get the songs out and play some first position chords while you screech to yourself, playing one level, but not more than one level, above "air guitar," letting your long hair fall forward dramatically over your guitar, 'cept when you sweep it up really cool and dramatically, while you rock out, feel it, and achieve inner space, unable to detect that you don't sound one whit like Boston, then, buy this book. But if you want to actually play Boston, this is one time you'd better "worry 'bout what you [are] missing."
