Potato's In The Paddy Wagon

This is a great book if you like the new Christopher Guest movie "A Mighty Wind." All the songs are here in standard sheet music notation with guitar tablature (most are fairly simple to play, except a couple of the 'Folksmen' songs). There is a colorful if brief history of all three bands, and a short introduction by Guest. Additionally, there are printed and complete versions of all the lyrics printed both within the sheet music and outside of it, where they are easier to read. A special bonus is the music to 'The Catheter Song,' which was scandalously omitted from the soundtrack.If you like the movie, or just like the music, you will like this book, just understand it's a music book first, and a scrapbook second.

If you loved the movie, you'll love the book! It's filled with excellent and colorful pictures of the cast performing, and sheet music with lyrics to those wonderful and silly songs that are hard to stop singing...Enjoy!
