Customer Rating:      Summary: Bob Dylan Songbook Comment: This book is about 1.5 inches thick and includes it all. Really good and well presented.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Intervals right but that ain't 'zactly how Bob plays it... Comment: This is a big book, and on the surface a good value -- although there are some very critical omissions IMHO.
But the biggest problem I have with this book is that it's not "as played" accurate -- and therefore not "definitive". Yes, you can whip this book out and start playing and singing Dylan songs for your friends and 98% of them won't know the difference. But if you want to play them right -- the way Bob plays them -- you will have to use your ears.
This is a common problem with chord/tablature books, and is not limited to this one... but what the publishers of this type of books should know is this:
Anyone who is interested enough in Dylan to buy a book like this will also probably invest in a capo!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good Value Comment: My son has recently become a Dylan fan and I bought him this book so that he can learn some of his favourite songs (guitar and lyrics). Not bad for a plain Jane book that contains tons of songs. He thinks in a few of the songs, some of the chord progressions are not right, but I think it may just be a Bob Dylan thing. I was worried that with a book this size, I would have to take it apart and hole punch the pages into a binder, but so far it has held up well and the book stays open nicely at whatever page you are viewing.
Customer Rating:      Summary: well well well Comment: pretty hyped on the number of songs in the book and just about all the lyrics, but alot of the chords are off. that sucks. but if you really dont care about that the book will atleast make your pad look a little cooler.
Customer Rating:      Summary: These chords are not blowin' in the wind Comment: The review by Kyle is right on. Based on trying out "Blowin' In the Wind," the chords are just wrong. And its not a matter of transposing the chords (or of a missing transition chord) -- the chords are incorrect in whatever key you play it. The whole point of buying a guitar songbook is to be able to read and play; but I had to pick up the right chords from listening to the song, with a little help from an internet search!
