I just recieved this book and for the life of me, it seems a lot of the tabulature is incorrect. This book has been around for awhile with little if any negative reviews. I'm a biginner, but like to think I can read music pretty well. Quite a few of the tabs for these songs in this book seem wrong. Has any one else noticed this?

Hi Mike

I also have that book. You have to find the right version of song that the tabs have been written for. Just an example of the top of my head is Sonny Boy II's The Key. I have heard him playing 3 different versions where he plays the harp toatally different each time. The version I have used to play along with from the book is of the Sonny Boy Williamson 55 Masterpieces album https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WoTvemgcXI.

Hope this works for you

Alan
