Randy Newman -- Anthology, Vol 2: Music for Film, Television and Theater (Piano/Vocal/Chords) Paperback – July 1, 2005

Timely delivery

It's more difficult than most of the music I play, but I'm working up to the challenge!

It is interesting how the vocal/melody lines of his songs don't necessarily match the treble and bass lines. In most songbooks the melody is played with the right hand, but for Newman's songs the right hand is just to accompany the melody. If you want the melody, you either have to sing it or try to work it in.I tend to focus on "Blue Shadows" from The Three Amigos, "I will go sailing no more" from Toy Story, and "My life is good".

Intermediate level of Randy Newman songs. I bought the book primarily for “it’s a jungle out”.

This anthology has some songs that are hard to find anywhere else.I would've given this 5 stars, but I've already found a lyric mistake in the first song I've looked at, which is Blue Shadows. Of course, almost every songbook in existence has lyric mistakes, so it's not a big deal.

Item was as described. Quick turnaround and good price. I am quite happy.

This collection of Randy Newman tunes is excellent, and a must-have for any Randy Newman fan interested in Randy's film work, or his knack for writing great songs. Buy it.Gary Norris - Randy Newman Archivist and Collector
