Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2024
This song book is easy to use and the chord sheet with each song helps in playing the songs. I highly recommend this book to any level player. It has many of today's top hits and I was playing these songs in a matter of days, not weeks or months. This is a must have song book. Get it.

The binding makes this valuable book awkward to use. A spiral binding would be ideal.

I use this book to practice on the piano as a self taught pianist. I find it easier to learn the chords then play melodies and the chord symbol. I play for my pleasure and entertainment and am able to choose from dozens of songs which I love. I like this book a whole lot.

Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2012
Really enjoyed his first volume but less so for this one. The first volume's songs were well selected, appealing, and scored more at my level - beginner to early intermediate. The second volume had more, longer songs with more difficult scoring and many were pop tunes which depend heavily on choosing an appropriate keying and rhythm structure for the base chords rather than simply playing the ones that are shown.The result is that the piano rendering of these songs can sound very artificial compared to the commercial arrangements your ear may be more familiar with and expecting. Advice about how to modify the chord notes to create a more correct bass rhythm would be very helpful rather than the chord table he presents at the top of the page. Volume two also has notably more difficult pieces. Working through them is admittedly educational, but I would not recommend this for a beginner who wants to quickly play some songs for friends or motivate a younger person.

The music in this book is available elsewhere (in Hal Leonard's easy fake book series). The difference with this book is that before each song Scott includes pictures of which keys go with each chord in the song.

He also includes a second, more advanced version of that chord that you can substitute to make the song sound "hipper". (His words.) The great thing is that I can now take these ideas for more advanced chords and apply them to some other fake books to make the music sound better.

The songs are easy enough that you feel satisfied and not frustrated, but they take time and effort to master completely.

This is my favorite piano book. Scott Houston’s arrangements are easy, but don’t sound like it. I’m just learning to play with fakes books instead of traditional music & I LOVE this. It’s so fine to be able to sit down & play pop music right away.

Both book one and two are really good fake books. They have chord charts on every song. There are no fillers and the song selections are great with good variety and variety of rhythms. You can play straight out this book for a gig. I perform and teach and am going to highly recommend both these books to my students. I just love these books.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Second Piano Instructional Book!
Reviewed in Canada on July 9, 2021
This is a truly great instructional book for would-be piano players. Scott's promise in regard to your learning quickly, easily, and having fun while doing it is the absolute truth! I came to it from 7 years of learning to play classical music but longed to play popular music and couldn't seem to manage it on my own. I began with his first book in the series and immediately ordered this second one. I highly recommend his methods and his books! Enjoy!
