5For other instruments...  Mar 16, 2007 By Clay M. Capps
I notice that the guitar edition's reviews are placed under the mandolin and banjo tab editions as well, so I would just like to say that they are much like the guitar edition. All instrument formats feature exact transcriptions for the songs that feature that instrument (i.e. "man of constant sorrow" and "hard time killing floor blues" are transcribed note for note in the guitar version) often including arrangements of the melody for other songs that may not actually be heard on the soundtrack (i.e. there is no mandolin heard on "big rock candy mountain", but the mandolin book includes an arrangement that sounds nice anyway. Also, many times the mandolin or dobro parts are arranged for guitar in the guitar edition on songs like "you are my sunshine"). btw-For the reviewer who asked, yes Norman Blake's instrumental version of "man of constant sorrow" is transcribed in full in the guitar edition, but Blake plays it with a flatpick, not fingerstyle. It is very hard to tell the difference by ear, but amazon offers many bluegrass guitar instructional books that cover this method, known as "cross picking".

1disappointed  Jan 31, 2012 By cliff
Book was ok, lyrics was easy to read and stay on pace with but you have to be able to read music very well to play most of the songs in this book, not a good book for beginner, or intemediat like myself, I have a hard time understanding and playing, the price was right though, but the book didn't help me much.


5Love the movie and music  Apr 06, 2012 By Ed
I found the selections well chosen; some of the music is complicated, some simple and I picked up the music with varying degrees of satisfaction; I use this book often.


5Lives up to expectations  Jan 13, 2012 By Johnny Wilson
The musical selections in "O Brother, Where Art Thou" was purchased as a gift for my son. The selections have proved to be wonderful addition to his other music.


4Used it to learn these songs on fiddle  Nov 09, 2010 By fiddlinPE "hope"
This is what it says it is with the songs written as played in the movie, for the most part. I found just a few variations from the movie but it is a great collection of songs, nonetheless. I used it to learn the songs on fiddle for the O Savior, Where Art Thou play which is a parody of the movie and includes many of the tunes in this book with different lyrics.
