This is an excellent songbook to get. Contrary to the previous reviewer I believe the majority of these transcriptions are accurate. As with a lot of Jazz and Blues transcriptions you cannot document the 'feel' that Professor Longhair had. The book I have certainly includes some of his solos and some of the pieces are instrumental without lyrics.
His style is a mixture of Blues/Boogie-Woogie/Rumba/Samba all mixed up together. If you want to learn to play like Prof Longhair there is no better place to start - and there are no other songbooks of his material That I know of!Get more detail about Professor Longhair Collection (Piano Solo Personality).
