working musicians dictoinary of terms

BRAVO, Mr. Aranjo!!!Not only is this book witty, insightful and candid it's FUNNY! I have two other books by KARL ARANJO (Guitar Chord Guru & Guitar Scale Guru) and both of them well thought out, educational books, and I count them to be among the finest in my extensive collection. This DICTIONARY OF MUSICAL TERMS reveals an awful lot about the world and words of real musicians. I wish I would've found this book when I was a teenager or a music student because this vocabulary is essential and highly educational for all music students, musicains, hobbyists (like me) and teachers. Mr. Aranjo has obviously been there and done that as his sharp wit and good hearted wisecracking indicate. HIGHLY RECCOMMENDEDI learned and laughed, what more can I say except that I bought 10 of them for gifts. Hmm,,,, I wonder if he gives lessons
