Aside from the "screwed up" chords, the texts of the traditional songs the book offers are rarely the ones I would have selected from the many versions available in various published sources. Maybe the better texts just weren't available, but to have this mess become a song circle's Bible is a major tragedy. For Heaven's sake, Joe, don't push it just because it's cheap and you can make money selling it! It is NOT a very good source for song texts, and yet the versions it contains, because of the thousands of copies now in the hands of the innocents, are getting to be looked upon as the definitive ones.

While I'm at it, I noticed some errors in the headnotes to the songs, as well, before I put the book aside as more of an irritant than an aid. Beware of the misinformation it contains.
