Summary: More than just a songwriters book!
Comment: I discovered this book at my local library and was so impressed with it that I had to buy a copy for my bookshelf. There is certainly a wealth of information of great interest to the aspiring songwriter but beyond that there is also a wealth of information for people who want to be better at playing the guitar. Rikky Rooksby goes into the intricacies of chords and progressions in a way that makes the complex simple and understandable to anyone with even a passing understanding of theory. If you're looking for a songbook full of tabs this ain't it. If you're looking for a book that *will* make you a better guitarist and/or songwriter, I can't recommend this book highly enough. An enthusiastic five stars!

Summary: Finally! A book that helps me understand *my* songs
Comment: I've bought half a dozen guitar chord books over the years, always trying to figure out just why something I play on guitar sounds good/interesting/different to me. Most of those "2000+ Chords!" books had none of the chords I played. Not only did this book actually contain those chords (a coincidence? it's not at all a chord dictionary), it helped me understand their relationships to one another.
The only thing that would make this book better is if the publisher could get a deal with the 1,000+ songs referenced by the book so I could get them all in MP3 format on a single DVD. Then I could instantly follow the theory and the practice in my practice.

Summary: Pretty helpful...
Comment: This really did help mme to write songs better. I can't explain this. I mean I think that it is a lot simplerthn he makes it tou to be, but his basic idea and philosophy on songwriting changed the way that I write songs and I still use his approach when writing songs today. there really isn't all that muh else to say. If you want to buy it then you should. (...)
