Cole Porter the Platinum Collection (Piano/Vocal/Guitar Songbook): 50 Classic Songs for Piano and Voice with Guitar Chords

Contains 50 songs... Possibly the best value single-volume book of Cole Porter songs, although you will ultimately need to buy more books to get all of Cole's great songs in your library! Musically, fantastic - all songs are in their original arrangements and published keys, with full intros, etc. However, some songs do famously have numerous additional extra verse lyrics by Cole Porter, that have sadly been ommited from publication in this book, for instance, "Let's Do It" and "You're The Top."(Out of interest, this big green Faber book does include every single one of the 18 songs featured in the sheet music book  De-Lovely (Music from the Motion Picture): Piano/Vocal/Chords: Music from the Motion Picture PVG  from the popular 2005 movie, the only real difference being the song "Begin The Beguine" in the re-worked minor key arrangement used in the film, versus the original major key Cole Porter composition found here, and the total absence of the song "Experiment" which Cole Porter sings in the movie, but is not included in either book.)Eb________Another Opening, Another ShowCm-C______Anything GoesC_________Be A ClownG-E_______Be Like The BluebirdC_________Begin The BeguineEb________Blow, Gabriel, BlowF_________Brush Up Your ShakespeareF_________Don't Fence Me InGm-G______(You'd Be So) Easy To LoveEb________Every Time We Say GoodbyeF-Fm______From This Moment OnG-Gm______Get Out Of TownF-Dm______Goodbye, Little Dream, GoodbyeCm-Eb_____Hey, Good Lookin'Eb________I Get A Kick Out Of YouEb________I Happen To Like New YorkC-Cm-C____I Love ParisFm-F______I Love YouBb________I'm A GigoloF_________In The Still Of The NIghtEb________I've Got You Under My SkinCm________It's Alright With MeF_________It's De-LovelyDm________Just One Of Those ThingsBb________Let's Do It (Let's Fall In Love)C_________Let's MisbehaveBb________Love For SaleEb________Miss Otis RegretsC_________Mister And Missus FitchC-Cm______My Heart Belongs To DaddyC_________Night And DayFm-Ab_____So In LoveEb________Take Me Back To ManhattanBbm-Bb____Thank You So Much Missus Lowsborough-GoodbyD_________The Physician (But He Never Said He Loved Me)Fm-F______Too Darn Hot!G_________True LoveC-Am______Were Thine That Special FaceF_________Well, Did You Evah?C_________What Is This Thing Called Love?C-F_______Where Is The Life That Late I Led?Bb________Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?Eb________Why Can't You Behave?D-G-Eb-G__WunderbarC_________You'd Be So Nice To Come Home ToC_________You Don't Know PareeEb________You Do Something To MeEb________You're SensationalEb________You're The TopEb________You've Got That Thing

Contents as written by thes over reviewer, lots I knew and some new ones too. I really like the arrangements, vocal line is contained in the piano par but is also scored separately. Chords are accurate and complete too. I would suggest difficulty is about 5 fror some, maybe up to 7 but soooo delicious its worth some effort.The only thing that could be improved would be the tight binding that is a nightmare on music stand. I do wish all music books were ringbound...Nether the less, well worth buying

Good selection of songs but printing a bit faint (pianist struggled to see all of the notes)

a really good book for a vocalist and piano, however the keys may not always be in the right key for yourself. Good book though, ideal to transpose for trumpet and flugel

As I do a lot of singing this song book is extremely good value for money considering it has50 of Cole Porter's compositions. Arrived quickly and I haven't stopped singing since!

This collection of Porter's songs seems to cover all the bases adequately.

This was a gift for a budding jazz singer and she love it.

good. Would help if contents were shown when making a buying choice. Show first page.
