THE Songbook December 12, 2006
This is my most prized songbook, hands down. It contains an outstanding mix of songs, both Christian and non-Christian, that build you up and even sweep you away. I originally got it because it had more of my favorite songs than any other book I'd seen. Far more. During my years as a songleader for camps and Sunday-night services, I always kept this book with me. Despite the huge number of songs, it's a slim volume that I could keep either in the neck of my guitar case or in the box where I kept my capo, picks and extra strings.
I am buying one for my daughter, who was a camp song leader last summer. Perhaps this will be the start of a family tradition.
Best Songbook-Hands Down! April 3, 2006
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I am a pastor and music leader and we use this songbook as our regular "hymnal." I have used this book for over 20 years and it is hands-down the best. It has a great mix of contemoporary and traditional music. It also has a huge selection of secular music with tunes from a variety of eras. There is something in it for virually every audience from senior citizens to teenagers.
Before discovering this collection I used to carry 3 or 4 song books around when I had a hospital and nursing home ministry. It has gone through several editions and the newest book has over 1000 songs. My only complaint about the book is that some of the songs have been tampered with to make them "politically correct," i.e. "Onward Christian Soldiers" has been altered to "Onward Christian People" and "Faith of Our Fathers" has been changed to "Faith of Our Founders (Fathers/Mothers)." Absurd and irritating as this is, one must understand that the editor (and author of many of the songs) is from very liberal Marin County in Northern California.
Yohan Anderson has done music leaders and everyday sing-at parties-and-holidays folks a great service in compiling this wonderful songbook.
The 2nd best book in the world (after the Bible of course) April 18, 2003
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I absolutely love this book. It is definitely the best book I own besides the Bible. I found my dad's 1982 edition and it is very awesome. Pretty much any song that I'd ever want to play (before 1982) is in there. And I'm pretty sure that this one for sale is a newer edition, so it'd have more recent songs.It has everything from oldies, to hymns, to pop songs, and folk songs. I taught myself to play guitar off the chord chart in the back. The bottom line is that this book is essential to anyone who is a guitarist, or just likes to sing. If I could own only two books, it would be the Bible and "Songs." Do not go another day without it! I plan to buy another since I use it so much and don't want to ruin my dad's copy.
Songs December 6, 2002

This is THE best book for sing-alongs, church services, and camps. It has an amazing range of songs: Beatles, oldies (Bicycle Built for Two, etc.) rounds, Christmas, and on and on. We've even used it to entertain at a nursing home a few times - they loved it!
Be aware that one version just has guitar chords. Another one (Tune Book) also has notes for most of the songs.
Most Useful Song Book I Own June 5, 2001
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I've owned and used editions of this song book since 1987. I learned to play guitar using this book. I've loaned it and recommended it to everyone learning to play guitar and lead music. Familiar songs, a WIDE variety of song styles, chord chart in the back. You're guaranteed to find songs you know, songs you love and songs you remember as well a number of new ones!
