Customer Reviews

Wonderful boomer music for voice,piano & guitar

I've looked for this songbook to replace a copy I originally bought 4 decades ago & lost. Wonderful arrangements of favorite 60's baby-boomer hits for singing with piano and/or guitar accompaniment.

Just buy it.

Milton Okun's collection has long been the benchmark in Sixties music compilations. Nearly every important song and songwriter is featured. The arrangements are easy to play, without being the stripped-down versions found in "easy piano" and "easy guitar" collections. The introduction offers excellent insight into the social and political upheaval that made the music of the Sixties more than just entertainment. If you play guitar or piano and want to learn (or relearn) the music of our most fascinating recent decade, this book will enthrall and delight you.

Best arrangements for piano and vocals of the sixties.

If you want one book that captures the songs of the 1960's, this is the book. The arrangements for piano are the best I've seen.
