Title: I think it's a pirated copy.
Product review: I have/had this sheet music around somewhere, but since I seem to have misplaced it I ordered this back-up copy. So, the thing is, I know what it's SUPPOSED to look like. (It's supposed to look like the one in the thumbnail, but it doesn't.) The bogus cover appears to be a badly done color copy, very underexposed, poor reproduction--Jay seems to be standing in a dim photography darkroom with nothing but the red glow of the film-safe light reflecting off his skin and fiddle. The sheet music pages inside have the feel of inkjet paper with poor ink fill in several areas. Whereas in the original, the violin part was an insert on trifold paper, making it easier to spread out and read, this copy is all on bifold, and partially stapled in. I really doubt if the Mel Bay Company is sanctioning this product. I'd return it except for the fact that it's not a high value item, so it's not worth the trouble. Plus, at least I have a copy, albeit an inferior one, of the music.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
