Very nice, and inexpensive too.

I don't know, if you look at the preview inside the book, it's not that great
So just lyrics with chords written over them? Not very useful. At the very least, I'd want lead sheets (melody + chords). This just looks like what you'd find on AZchords or similar websites. I wouldn't spend 20 euros on that.

Probably no better than the likes of "ultimate guitar", which is free.

Soft back? Like the Beatles song... Softback Writer...

AZchords, Ultimate Guitar, or TusAcordes + a printer and you're ready. The whole music scene in your hands: chords, tabs, piano notes, etc.
Don't forget my collection of demos and outtakes: http://goo.gl/uQARhn PM me if you want any [leaked] multitrack. Ya se ven los tigres en la lluvia.
Didn't someone here post a similar pdf a while ago?

I assume it was homemade since the title to a song was RAGIO GAGA (a typo)

Lyrics with chords are alright but suppose the person doesn't know chord variants
"Come tonight! Come see the Overbite! Come to Ogre Battle, FIGHT!"
not very useful?...i wouldn't trust the internet for chords, in particular a certain Mr Randles who is doing the You tube rounds at the moment. Its a great book, thankfully some fan has taken the time to create it!

You don't "trust" chords, you try them out and fix what's not right. But if you're ex-temping, say, a solo guitar accompaniment, chords alone aren't all that useful unless you're just going to brainlessly strum. If I'm going to get my voicings right, I need to have the melody written out, so I need a lead sheet. If all I get is lyrics and chords, I still have to transcribe the melody myself, which means that I've won very little in terms of time. So no, not very useful.

So it's not useful for YOU, but it will be for other people.

^useful to a piano player or amateur guitarist. ... and oddly enough useful to a PROFESSIONAL MUSICIAN as a fake book for a cover band ("they'll figure it out")
"Come tonight! Come see the Overbite! Come to Ogre Battle, FIGHT!"
Why is it fake?

Lol, clearly a bitter chap who can't help but discourage people, shame.
