5.0 out of 5 stars The Top Critical Review Is Nonsense
Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2013
Verified Purchase
The person in the top critical review isn't paying attention. The title of this book is, "30 EASY Spanish Guitar Solos." That is, the arranger has intended them to be easy. Any guitarist, with a little skill, can embellish them, and make them richer, as he or she chooses.

As far as their relevance goes, I am a guitarist living in Mexico, and most of these songs are still very popular among Mexicans of all ages. Many are not known by tourists or maybe members of "the Latin American Club," but they are loved by Mexicans.

The few songs that I've learned from the book have had very accurate tabs, and the accompanying CD is very helpful, and enjoyable enough to play when entertaining Mexican guests.

One recommendation: Learn the soulful La Llorona as the author tabs it, then convert it to an American style of folk finger picking. The Mexicans tell me its the most intensly emotional La Llorona that they've ever heard. That is one example of how to build on what the author presents in this book. On the other hand, don't even listen to Malaguena -- it's embarassing, and can't be played in an easy way without ruining it. Do a search on the Internet for Malaguena Sabicas to see how the late master played it.

The reason that I'm revisiting this publication again after purchasing it several months ago is that I'm buying a second copy for a very good Mexican friend of mine, who has been playing the guitar and singing many of these songs for more than thirty years. She has seen me play, with my finger style, and wants to learn to do the same. I told her that this book was a good way to start.

4.0 out of 5 stars 4 stars with two big caveats
Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2020

I've been playing steel string for about twenty years and I'm just beginning to learn nylon classical style with a private instructor. I bought this book separately from my instruction cuz it looked interesting. This book has some good standards of the style, but with two things you have to understand.

First, there are no fingering notations for left or right hand in the music, which is a big oversight for anyone serious about learning the style, especially the right hand. Which finger to use to play a string is a big deal when beginning this style, as using correct fingers as you play is the basis for learning all the more advanced pieces.

Second, the pieces as written in this book are by and large not the actual pieces. They are simplified versions. For example I learned El Noi de la Mare as played by Segovia on YouTube and the version in this book is wayyyy simplified and honestly not even close. Lagrima is accurate as it's a simpler piece. La Paloma is simplified and in a totally different key I believe, but the version in this book is still very nice and fun to play. The downside is that for the player who intends to be serious, you will end up learning these pieces twice-- the easy version in the book, and the real version in the future when you're ready for it.

TL;DR: if you are planning on becoming a very serious student of the classical guitar, I couldn't recommend this book. I'd recommend finding a more structured, organized method that allows advancing your technique "properly" rather than spending time learning these sort of scattershot, simplified pieces lacking finger notation. If however you are a casual player just looking to learn some pieces that sound pretty as quickly as possible and that aren't super difficult, this book is perfect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Spanish Guitar Book for the Price
Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2013
Verified Purchase
30 Easy Spanish Guitar Solos is by far the best music book for the price. For less than $12 you get a 63 page book with songs listed in both tablature and standard notation along with a CD of every song in the book. The book can be made to lay pretty flat on my music stand. As an intermediate guitar player some of these songs were already known to be but others were not. The CD is great to just listen to as well. The songs in this book are for the more advanced beginner up to intermediate player. After I listened to the CD I found five songs that appeal to me enough to want to learn them. Everyone's tast is different and I suspect when you listen to the CD you will also find a few songs worth learning. That is well work the price of the book for me if I can identify a select few songs worth spending the time to learn. Below is a list of the songs in this book in the order they appear. I have placed asterisks next to the songs that appealed to me. Find them on u tube and even if one song excites you purchase the book to add to your guitar music library.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really Enjoyable Music
Reviewed in Canada on March 28, 2024

This is an excellent book on Spanish-style music. Please note that "Easy Spanish" is not the same as easy beginner guitar. You should have some beginner guitar experience and a fair amount of finger dexterity and finger independence before you try these songs.
I took up guitar three years ago and had the advantage of some private lessons. I'm loving this book!

Easy to follow. Nice selection of music. Some hard pieces to play for a beginner like me, but the book versions appear simplified and easier to pick up and practice with.
Great that the audio tracks are available. Although I think that the audio versions are not exactly the same as in the book. But still useful all the same.

I like the use of both classic notation and tabs.

Good fun book to practice with
