 Disappointing to an Evangelical September 4, 2001
26 out of 36 found this review helpful
As a leader of my church's worship band - and able to take just so many content-less praise choruses in a Sunday service - I was excited to learn about a book with guitar chords for 1000 hymns. I thought, this is just what I've been looking for to be able to add some good 'truth' to the great 'spirit' that the band was bring to Sunday AM worship. However, I must say that I was dissapointed when I got a look at the book. I've grown up in evangelical churches and this collection is not aimed at this background. I have been singing hymns for over thirty years now, (and probably have the words of more than one verse for over 300 memorized) but I can turn page after page after page in this collection and not recognize a one. My feeing is that probably only a fifth of the hymns with which I am most familiar are in this collection. I'm not sure where these hymns come from, but they're just *not* what's found in the mainstream evangelical hymnals I grew up with.
 Classic Sound... Contemporary Format December 7, 2000

The Hymn Fake Book is an excellent resource for worship teams & worship leaders who desire to use hymns in their services, but have difficulty reading a standard hymnal's 4-part harmony. Contemporary worship teams will especially appreciate the lead sheet feel of this book (melody line with chord symbols), and classic worshipers will appreciate the true hymnal sound which is captured in these arrangements. These are not contemporary arrangements, but a "lead sheet" approach to the classic hymns. Hymns from different denominations along with 10-15 Christmas carols. Excellent resource!
