Title: Great Musical- Great Book- Few Songs.
Review: Although 'Closer Than Ever' is one of my favorite Broadway revues, and all the sheet music in this book is very good, there aren't that many songs included. The songs are: Miss Byrd, One Of The Good Guys, Life Story, If I Sing, Back On Base, and Closer Than Ever. 'If I Sing' is an amazing piece. That alone is worth the price of the book. However, I would've given the book a fifth star if it had included more songs from the show. Such as... You Want To Be My Friend?, What Am I Doin'?, Three Friends, Another Wedding Song, or Father of Fathers. As I said, 'If I Sing' is absolutely amazing. If you have a tenor range and are interested in singing 'If I Sing', buy this book. If you want a taste of some great sheet music from an impressive revue musical, buy this book. But if you want to have a more complete collection from 'Closer Than Ever', buy the vocal score instead.
