The Little Black Book Of Beatles Songs For Ukulele

Good collection. Well laid out.

This little ukulele book has all the Beetles songs in. My husband plays them most days. Out of all the music books he has, this is his favorite.

Kindle format is ideal for this book - you can prop it up in front of you or put it on a music stand. Great to have all the words and chords for practically every Beatles song ever written nice and clearly laid out. However, as Ringo sang "You know it just ain't easy..." The chords given here are quite tricky (C#m(maj7) anyone?) and seem to come from the guitar versions. Many of the songs would be a lot easier to play on the uke if transposed, and even the simple chord patterns are often given with extra unnecessary fingering.

What a great little book with more than enough songs to keep me busy. Some of the songs could have easier chords than those given as the book tries to keep to the Beatles original guitar chords. Nevertheless is a great learning tool. Like other reviewers the plastic binder is not easy to keep open at the required pages and a bit of ingenuity is needed! Despite that drawback I love it.

Everything I've played out of this little Kindle edition seems to be all good so far - no wrong chords anywhere, as far as I've seen anyway. BARE IN MIND - Won't open on some Kindles - I have to open it on Ipad or PC Kindle apps. For some reason, and I'm not quite sure why, it won't open on my Kindle Paperwhite, which did irritate me a little!

This book is great, it's got the ukulele chords and lyrics for almost every Beatles song ever recorded, in the original key signatures. I had trouble thinking of Beatles songs that AREN'T in here (drew a blank after "Maggie Mae" and "Revolution 9"). Some are easy, e.g. "Love Me Do" has just 3 chords, whereas others are trickier, e.g. "Martha My Dear" has 19 different chords and about 90 chord changes. Top tip: if it's too small for your music stand then try using a cookery book stand to hold the pages open.

This is probably a great book for those with better skills then me. But for someone who loves the Beatles, but still kind of a beginner on the ukulele, this is not for you, the chords are apparently in the original key, which is why some of the chords are quite complex for the beginner. I would recommend getting a book that's intended more beginners/intermediates.

Simply put, it's the Beatles arranged for ukulele. Think of a song by them and it's likely to be in here (including more obscure tracks like 'Why Don't We Do It In The Road?'). Some are easy, consisting 3 or 4 chords, but others contain a lot more and some fast changes! I'd say I'm an average quality player and the good thing about this book is that there are songs that anyone can play (from a beginner knowing a few chords to a competent player looking to improve). You don't need to be able to read music as chord boxes are shown at the top of the song page along with the various chord changes above the song lyrics. The only reason I've given this book 4/5 is down to the spine binding. It really needs a spiral binding so that the book stays open on the song you're playing. I use a Stagg music desk stand but even that struggles to keep the book open in the right place at times. If you love the Beatles and love your Uke then this is an essential purchase.

Von mir leider keine Kaufempfehlung, weil: - Bei jedem Lied stehen die Akkorde dabei, das ist gut. Jedoch sind die dazugehörenden Grifftabellen fast alle FALSCH! - Die Lieder sind alle in einer viel zu kleinen Schrift gedruckt. Für das Mitsingen fast ungeeignet. - Das Buch lässt sich sehr schwer biegen. Wenn man daher keinen Notenständer hat, dann klappt das Buch beim musizieren von alleine zu. Und irgendwann einmal werden beim Buch durch das viele Biegen, die Seiten rausfallen. Schade um die 16 €!

UN PO' PICCOLO MA BELLO !

One of my favorite music books of all time. I've been using this one for about seven years now and LOVE IT. It's a great way to learn more chords as I have fun strumming out the Beatles tunes that are so familiar. Accuracy and quality of the transcriptions is outstanding. A few things to know -- but not worthy of taking off a star: - The binding is a little tight, even after seven years. I use two extra-large binder clips to help keep the book open on my music stand. - The print is small, but I love the portability. This book has been on lots of vacations. - The editors went for accuracy, so this book has songs that range from pretty easy to somewhat challenging. But even when I was brand new to the instrument, I could play plenty of songs. It has grown with me as I've improved and it's been so much fun to have more songs open up to me. There are still many I look forward to tackling as my skills improve. In terms of cost per hour of entertainment, this is the best deal on the planet.

Genial! Con un montón de canciones del cuarteto. Completísimo. Recomendado 100%

Petit livre très utile qui contient énormément de chansons des Beatles (peut-être même toutes?) En tout cas toutes celles que j'aime y sont. Le papier est de bonne qualité, le format poche pratique pour emporter partout. les chansons sont intéressantes à jouer, on y trouve des accords assez originaux, pas standard, ce qui permet de progresser dans son jeu. Bien mieux que de chercher les tabs sur internet. En revanche, le livre ne tient pas bien ouvert tout seul, il faut prévoir quelque chose pour le caler. Je recommande
