 The Best Folk Singing Book Ever Nov 30, 2008
I have had two other copies of this book in my life and I utilized several times for plays I wrote and presented on stage. It has hundreds of amazing songs and I love it! If you love folk songs, make sure you purchase a copy of Rise Up Singing.

An Essential Songbook Sep 02, 2008
Rise Up Singing has more songs for the buck than just about any songbook anywhere. I am amazed at the songs that were included - a balanced selection of old standards and some quality songs that haven't received much acclaim. I an a good guitarist and can figure out all kinds of chord systems, but the one used here is unique and takes some getting used to. Once mastered, it is easy to follow. As with most songbooks, I disagree with a few of the chord selections, but we all grow stronger with debate. Buy this book!
A book you'll actually use Aug 22, 2008
I like to cook and have found that a good cook book is filled with recipes you would cook anytime, even a new one for first time guests. Other books might have one or two good recipes but overall, they just doesn't spend a lot of time off the shelf and in the kitchen. This music book is like a good cook book in a way - filled with songs that you will spend hours singing, jamming with friends who will know songs you don't and playing for your kids, yourself and others. It will get used over and over again. I actually bought this book 8 years ago along with a guitar for my husband for our first Christmas. I bought it again recently for a friend who did spend hours with my husband pouring through our copy, playing guitar and having a marvelous time. A broad scope of songs with lyrics and guitar chords. Enjoy!
Great Jul 03, 2008
Get thee to a camp fire with this. Proud to say that I sang years ago with Pete Seeger. (He was visiting the camp I was the song specialist at in New York- not that he would remember me). These songs are all familiar and easy to sing and sing along to. A great feel of a time past!

Best songbook ever! Apr 29, 2008
I've had this book since I was a kid in the early 90s who wished she'd been around for the sixties. I found it in the library and checked it out over and over til I finally had to special order a copy from the Waldenbooks in the mall. ('Member back in the day when we ordered stuff from Waldenbooks?)
I am far from an accomplished musician! But I got the hang of their system pretty quickly. You have to really know the song to make any sense of the chords, since it's just lyrics and chord names, but it tells you the chords for each line and if you do know the song you'll have a sense of exactly when to switch chords. It also tells you what albums have the song on them so you can find it if you don't know it but like the looks of it. ('Member back in the day when we bought albums?)
Anyway, this book is fantastic, I love it to death, and you should buy the spiral bound version so it stays open while you play and sing. ('Member back in the day when we played and sang? Oh yeah, we still do that. That will never go out of style!)
