Rolling Stone Easy Piano Sheet Music Classics: 39 Selections from the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time: Easy Piano (1)

This is the second Rolling Stones music book I have bought. There are some good music choices from many different genres. I learned to play piano when I was from 10 yrs old to 13yrs. I hadn’t bothered with piano playing until I retired at 66. So now after getting back into it ( 2 years) I am enjoying being able to learn new songs from many different music books. The versions arranged by Dan Coates in these books are the best for someone with my ability. They aren’t really, really easy for beginners , but with a little practice I find I can get through most of them. I love when I have mastered a new familiar tune.

Nice arrangements as usual from Dan Coates

This only arrived today and I was super excited to try out some of the songs to see how I got on. Well, I pleasantly surprised myself by being able to sight-read the several that I tried, albeit with several stumbles along the way, but with practice I should be able to play them well. They are well laid out and almost intuitively arranged so that the player can feel confident and play fairly fluently. The songs are well-known, all the lyrics are there as well as guitar chords. If you have moved on from beginner, you will have a lot of fun playing these. There are lots in the book, so shouldn't get boring quickly at all. And a nicely different selection from a lot of piano books. I found usually whichever ones you get have at least half the songs in other books that you already have, but not so with these. So I think good value. The paper isn't great quality, but it isn't bad either. And I wish it would stay open better and somehow omit page turns but this is common to a lot of books, so it tends to be up to the player to get the knack of dealing with these things. I have found no faults at all with the actual music, it's very sound. (pun not intended but I like it :) ) Happy playing if you buy it.

There is a big problem when buying Piano books as there is no guide in the description as to what grade in playing the Piano. I got to a grade 3, 30 years ago and I can only play 3 songs out of the whole book, so money wasted for me sadly.

"500 GREATEST SONGS OF ALL TIME" (Switch to really small font in a colour that's fairly difficult to see) ..."39 selections from the" The book is well laid out with a separate artist and song index. The music is clear (170ish pages) but the spine is pretty strong and you need to force it open to stop the pages closing in on each other. The 39 choices are a personal opinion, I found I liked about half and the other half were interesting. I use the book about half as much as I hoped.

Got this for number two son as he's loving the piano again, songs are well laid out. Both him and his instructor very impressed with the book.

If you want to buy awesome piano sheets of great songs of all time, this is your choice. I bought it for my father and he's really enjoying these piano sheets, in his words "not as easy at they seem and not hard to play, amazing gift". Cheers!

The arrangements are almost too simple.

I pezzi sono belli ma alcuni non si adattano molto al pianoforte.Le musiche rock sono adatte per chitarra elettrica ed organo o piano elettrico ma non molto per il piano

I learned a lot!

Die Noten sind sehr gut. Nur der Titel ist irritierend.

Like to play these on the keyboard

Great collection of songs for those who love the 1970's. Dan Coates as expected has done a great job at simplifying difficult pieces...
