Review: Very excited to find this! Great packing job for this vintage item! - Product was wrapped extremely well. Little wear due to aging but this book is in phenomenal condition other than that. Such a great find and at a great price! I especially loved the personal note within encouraging me to share my good experience with the seller! They have a great shop! I recommend purchasing any books with piece of mind knowing it will hold up in whatever weather conditions! It was wrapped in plastic wrap airtight with a layer of protective cardboard over that to prevent dings. Such care. Thank you Honest Discount! I feel like I got a great discount on this rare item!
Review: This book enables the Novice to read the music and understand how his music is constructed. - What a great reissue !!This book got so totally expensive that its a great relief to buy it at desertcart for less then 100.00 to 300.00 These sellers should be called "Book Scalpers" The Music is comprised of the most Salient pieces from Zappa's Early era,namely the albums Freak Out,Absolutely Free,We're only in it for money. Because Ian Underwood knows how to arrange pieces, he created Playable Versions of these pieces that most Intermediate students can play. Zappa's early work was filled with Heartfelt Hope in changing the world(for the better) It is apparent in the strong melodies and chordal structures. This book enables the Novice to read the music and understand how his music is constructed. If you play a little bit you will surely enjoy how well the melodies and poetry are assembled,True Genius!!! Maybe you can take Music Lessons and go deeper to learn music to it's fullest extent. Wherever you are Musically you will truly Love this reissue. PS Thank Ian Underwood for being the only person to be Left Brain enough to put this down for us,Thank You,Yes we noticed!!!

If you're more than mildly interested in Zappa's music. You might want to pick this book up. One of the highlights of the book is "Piano Introduction to the Little House I Used to Live In" - This piece has been performed by "classical" ensembles like the Meridan Arts Ensemble and "classical pianists like Yvar Mikhashoff (on a CD with music by Aaron Copland, Charles Ives and John Cage, amongst others). Some of the charts are in concert key,(like "Brown Shoes Don't Make It") but some are transposed. For instance, "Mother People" might be an alto sax part? The chords would make more sense a minor third up. There's a section at the back of the book, "Real Life Manuscript Section" with samples of Zappa's musical hand-writing. If you a musician and a Zappa fan, you might want to pick this book up.
