Product Description
A unique composition book, this distinctive volume is the perfect gift for any seasoned songwriter or budding music expressionist. Quotes from legendary musicians on inspiration, the creative process, and the thrill of performance enhance the pages, which alternate between staves for writing music, tablatures for recording chords, and space for writing lyrics.

 Great Reaction August 26, 2008
I bought this for my husband, and he was very excited about the layout and having the ability to write for both piano and guitar in the same book. He hasn't had time to use it yet, but he had a great reaction when he received it.
 A perfect gift May 5, 2008
I purchased this item as a gift for a creative musician I know. The size is convenient to carry, the pages are professional music manuscript pages, and each page includes quotations from well known musicians talking about what inspires them. Ideal for jotting down musical ideas as they occur, or noting musical phrases from compositions heard. I was pleased that the gift was so pleasing.
Excellent for Keeping a Record July 3, 2005
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
It was a gift from my roommate when I was a music major in college. It definitely doesn't add up to simply buying staff paper when composing, transposing, and all that fun stuff. However, I found this book extremely valuable when I was just trying to organize all of my songs that I was recording at the time.
My only complaint - and one that I saw in another review - is that there is simply not enough room for some of my longer songs/lyrics. There is a lined area in the back, though, where I have been able to add additional verses to songs or notes.
 Sorely Mistaken... February 5, 2005
3 out of 5 found this review helpful
I bought this because I thought it would be full of staff paper with little quotes on the side every now and then.
What I got was a book of fancy, overpriced lined paper with boxes for guitar chords. I bought two of them (Musicians and Lyricists, because I am a trumpet player as well as a songwriter) and now I'm losing money to ship them back!
If you are looking for a notebook with staff paper in it, DO NOT PURCHASE THIS BOOK, NOR ANY OF THE SIMILAR BOOKS BY THIS PUBLISHING COMPANY. If I wanted lined paper, I would have gone to OfficeMax.
