Title: Overall excelent, more info below.
Review: Excelent book,9/10 Song selection10/10 ease of use9/10 price9.5/10 Completion of informationThis book has both traditional sheet music, and also tablature (a simplified way of expressing notes, simply giving a hole number and an arrow telling you to blow or draw.) This is helpful, because it is easy to understand which notes to play, but also allows for more detailed understanding of *how* to play the notes.In addition, there is a wide variety of songs, mostly ones which can be considered "Classic". There are big names and small ones, as well as old ones which few people likely remmember first-hand. There is a section at the back which gives more information about notation, which can really help the beginner with playing the songs as intended.If using a Kindle or a Kindle Fire tablet, as I am, you can zoom in to the sheet music, which as far as I can tell is auto-centered when you try to zoom into it.My favorite song so far is "What a Wonderful World", by Louis Armstrong (I believe). It is surprisingly easy to play, and in just a single session I was playing the beginning parts of it well enough to be complimented by those who heard me practicing through the walls (always practice music with the door closed when you are starting out, you never know what the other people in your house will think about your fledgeling new skill).Overall a great book, would highly reccommend to any beginner, and many intermediate players looking for more songs.One final note, however. This is not a book on "How to Play the Harmonica". If you know the most basic theory, or have access to the internet to look anything up about harmonicas, this (or something similar) is the most important thing to have. Practice is more important than books for the most part, and you need songs in order to practice. As I have stated, this is an excelent tool for practice.

Title: Just wow! Has EVERYTHING (just about . . .)!
Review: A great selection of songs! And, most importantly (and missing from most books of these type) is that each song has standard musical notation, harmonica tabulation (number and signals for blow or draw) and the words for the songs. I'm 'old' (60) so I wish the font was a bit larger. But, once I get my new glasses, that will no longer be a problem. Finally, I am taking one star off, because I wish it came with a CD or DVD or even an online 'play along with the songs'. A lot of 'Hal Leonard' books do Other than that, it is a great resource!

Customers say
Customers find the song selection good, laid out well, and a joy to play. They say the book is easy to understand, learn, and play at their own pace. Readers also describe it as a good buy for the money. They mention the sound quality is great and holds good pitch and tone. However, some customers feel the songs are tricky to follow along with and the combination of tab and standard musical notation is confusing.
