Summary of This Collection
This collection from the Easy Fake Book series is aimed at musicians seeking a direct and efficient reading of the gospel repertoire. The concept is simple and highly practical: for each title, you have the essentials to play and sing without wasting time, with an easy-to-follow melody line, lyrics in English, and a sequence of chords designed for accompaniment. It's the ideal format to quickly build a base of songs, work on interpretation, and adapt accompaniment according to the context (piano, guitar, keyboard, or any harmonic instrument).
Designed for real-world use, this fake book allows you to focus on rhythmic placement, dynamics, and the gospel "feeling": pickups, cadences, chord progressions, and freedom of arrangement. You can use it as a vocal aid (following the melody and lyrics), as a memory aid for a set, or as a starting point to create your own introductions, interludes, and endings. With its 152 pages, it provides enough material to fuel rehearsals, lessons, auditions, and performances, while remaining accessible and practice-oriented.
