It breaks down the trademark riffs and licks for 16 songs from four albums by Ben Folds Five: Alice Childress * Battle of Who Could Care Less * Boxing * Brick * Don't Change Your Plans * Eddie Walker * Evaporated * Kate * The Last Polka * Lullabye * Magic * Mess * Narcolepsy * Philosophy * Song for the Dumped * Underground.
Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
First, a warning: the songs in this book are NOT COMPLETELY TRANSCRIBED. Looking for the bridge to "Eddie Walker?" Not in the book; better be able to learn it from ear. That being said, what is in the book is of high quality. The transcriptions are dead on, and the CD helps get you through the tougher passages like the end of "Philosophy" and the piano solo from "Song For the Dumped." The song selection, while questionable at times ("Mess" but no "Army?" "Evaporated" but no "One Angry Dwarf?" C'mon!), is overall quite good and will satisfy most Ben Folds Five. But if you're HARD CORE into BFF, you may be better off with album folios, which have complete transcriptions. Still, this is a great book and will occupy hours of piano time. Play like Ben. Impress your friends. Have fun.
