This 'Easy Gospel Fake Book' is quite useful for vocal coaching. With all songs in C and clear vocal melodies provided, it’s great for focusing on vocal technique and harmony. The leadsheet format with simplified chords means the piano texture is basic, allowing flexibility for an accompanist to build appropriate support or let the vocalist shine. A practical resource for sacred repertoire.

I absolutely love 'The Easy Gospel Fake Book'! As an adult learner, the 'easy-medium' difficulty and all songs being in C make playing these beloved gospel tunes so enjoyable. I can actually sound like I know what I'm doing! The large notation is easy on the eyes, and having lyrics with the melody really helps me relax and sing along. It's a joy to play my favorite hymns.

Excellent. I have gotten lazy and like to play in the key of C now. I can play fair in F and G but it is more difficult in other keys. I don't sight read much anymore even though, with difficulty, I can. I love this one because I grew up Southern Baptist and all the songs are there and Gaither's as well.
