Easy Songs for Ukulele – Hal Leonard Ukulele Method | Beginner Ukulele Songbook with Chords and Lyrics | Features The Beatles, Elvis, Johnny Cash, Simon and Garfunkel, and More

I bought the version that gives free access to the Audio tracks. It costs more but is well worth it for the audio content. I am a novice and have had trouble playing songs with melody which I much prefer to strumming. The Audio allows me to set what speed I want to play and gives the choice of playing with the melody or with just the backing music. This makes learning so much easier than it was for me trying to follow lessons on YouTube. The book must show Audio Access Included on the front cover.

I found this book very useful for a beginner the tunes i knew i played straight off using the tab method and you have the chords and normal music notation so if you study and pratice all available in the book you should become quite a good uke player the cd is very helpful and also nice to listen to so to me i think its well worth the purchase price normal good AMAZON service as well.I tried the tab system in the book on the bottom 4 strings of a guitar and found it worked on that as well.

This is a good book for beginners who are learning to play the uke. Chord diagrams are shown over musical notation and tabs are also included underneath (I'm not sure what these mean though!). There's a good selection of familiar pop/folk/country songs here (20) and they are arranged with very simple chords. I'd recommend getting one of these "Easy" books to begin with and then work your way up to the more difficult uke books that are out there.

I ordered this book for my grandson as although he is a very accomplished drummer he also wanted to try a stringed instrument. I bought him a uke for his Christmas and he is enjoying learning to play it with the aid of the Easy Uke book. Great service from Amazon as usual. B C

Easy to follow but not necessary to have the audio links for very well known tunes. At least not for more than double the cost! Item returned for refund.

The CD is good to try and play along to. It gives you an idea of the tunes and timing if you don't know the tunes. (It's a bit ploddy.) The music is printed clearly and there are some good tunes. I'm enjoying learning from this book.

Being a beginner on ukulele I found this book really easy to follow. I know most of the songs so the tunes are in my head making it easier for me to learn the strumming patterns. It is set out clear, I would definitely recommend this to a fellow learner.

Arranged by ease for picking the tune, so some of the chords are tricky for beginners but a good song selection. One small gripe: some of the songs require you to turn the page which is a nuisance when trying to learn them. Otherwise, great!

Buen libro de canciones del ukelele incluye notación musical estandar, tabladuras y acordes (chords), además incluye las letras de las canciones (lyrics), la selección musical también es buena canciones de los Beatles, Elvis Presley, Simon Garfunkel, Hank Willians, Woody Guthrie... El pero de no dar 5 estrellas creo que deberían incluir más canciones por el precio, reduciendo el tamaño de la letra, otros libros incluyen 30 canciones. El precio comparado con otros libros sobre todo la edición con CD creo que es caro, sin el CD pasable aunque como digo debería incluir más canciones. Buen libro de todas maneras, buena selección de canciones con tabladuras no sólo acordes. Recomendable pero con mejoras. A good book of ukulele songs. It has musical notation, tabladures and chords. With the lyrics, too. A good selections of songs by Beatles, Elvis Presley, Simon Garfunkel, Hank Willians, Woody Guthrie... Cons... The price is a bit high (if you see other books of Liv rev collection ), I think must have a lot of songs (about 29-30). The CD edition is very expensive... Good book for ukelele.

I was going through the book, there is a simple layout. All the chords and the position on the fretboard together with the lyrics on one page. Before playing a tune, you can see how it goes.

muy buen libro para complementaruna buena formación me encanta y me ha ayudado a mejorar mis habilidades interpretativas en ukulele

Sto imparando ad usare l'ukulele, quindi ho acquistato il prodotto. Sono rimasta delusa perché le canzoni all'interno sono roba degli anni 60... A parte questo, il tutto è ben strutturato e descritto.

All the songs in this book fit the uke with its standard tuning of GCEA (high G). Some of the other books I looked at seem to have just taken guitar melodies and then put UKE chords on top, but the melodies then fell off the range of the instrument you have so are unplayable. Not so with this one. Every note is playable on the uke (tabs are provided) and all the lyrics are given. I never saw some of these verses before (btw, turns out that Tom Dooley guy was a jerk after all). This is a great book for sing alongs. Lots of fun tunes: “I walk the line”, “house of the rising sun”, “all my loving”.
