Sarah McLachlan - Afterglow.......2006-10-02
I loved it the instant I started playing it, what else can I say? The transcriptions are quite accurate and sound good on the piano. The vocal part requires that you listen to the CD to know what it is actually supposed to sound like on the verses, as Sarah changes them a bit. The piano part is a good mix of the original piano part plus some of the synth and guitar parts, a mix that is very pleasing to the ear. Enjoy!
A Wonderful Transcription of Afterglow.......2004-12-03
Includes: Fallen* World on Fire* Stupid* Drifting* Train Wreck* Push *Answer* Time* Perfect Girl* Dirty Little Secret
Really nice transcription of Sarah's Afterglow. The songs, when played on the piano, sound just about right, except for the fact that the melody line is always there. They definitely need a little interpretation here and there, but all in all this is great. The music is wonderful to play in itself, and singing to it is also fun (as long as you don't compare yourself to Sarah!). I haven't tried many of the songs with the guitar chords, but they also seem to be in line.
A perfect gift for any musician who's a fan of Sarah-even the not-quite-so-fanatics will enjoy. The piano is not too advanced, and the guitar chords are diagrammed along with the music. This is really a wonderful book of music.

Surfacing.......2005-01-02
Includes: Building A Mystery*I Love You*Sweet Surrender*Adia*Do What You Have To Do*Witness*Angel*Black and White*Full of Grace*Last Dance
It's always great to be able to sit down and play these beautiful songs; this is a great transcription of Surfacing. My only complaint is that Angel was taken down a half-step from the original D flat major-of course, that is me being lazy. I can always take it back up.
All in all, though, this deserves a resounding five stars. The arrangements are just gorgeous, and it's always a rush to be sitting there playing a Sarah song. You can't help looking around to see who is watching. If there's someone nearby when I'm playing, I usually end up scaring them away by stopping every few seconds and saying "Isn't this awesome?"
This is a great guitar book. Not a piano book!!.......2003-05-02
This is a guitar tablature book as the description . BR>By the way this is an excellent book. Standard guitar tab book with excellent transcriptions of all 10 songs from the album. Additional feature the great artwork.
Fantastic transcriptions of McLachlan's "Surfacing" shine..........2002-04-22
I own both of Sarah McLachlan's piano songbooks ("Sarah McLachlan Collection" and "Surfacing") and this is my favourite of the two. I've been playing piano for fourteen years and I've been a fan of Sarah for just as long. "Surfacing" features piano transcriptions that sound almost exactly like the CD. "Building a Mystery" captures the shimmering guitar intro and saucy feel, "I Love You" is a haunting piano solo that trails off into silence, "Sweet Surrender" was my least favourite....that haunting guitar intro just didn't cross over to piano as well. "Adia" sounds just like the recording, as does "Angel," and "Last Dance" performs beautifully (a musical saw played the melody on "Surfacing"). "Full of Grace" was featured on the "Moll Flanders" soundtrack a number of years back and is very delicate; "Witness" becomes a powerful song on piano with its striking, rhythmic bass chords that underscore the melody. "Black and White" was another song that I routinely skip over--somehow the piano just doesn't do it justice. This is the best transcription of popular music that I've ever had the pleasure to play--it is at times haunting, assertive, lovesick and playful. If you are a Sarah McLachlan fan you'll also want to check out the "Sarah McLachlan Songbook" that features songs from "Touch" and "Solace" along with "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy."
Great translations of Sarah`s music!.......1999-12-31
I`m not a great pianist but I have been playing for a short while and I love Sarah`s music. I must say this book is excellent. Angel sounds amazing as well as Do What You Have To Do. The melody for Angel is pretty easy so it isnt very difficult. I Love You sounds absolutley AMAZING! Even though the studio song isnt done with the piano it sounds really beautiful solo on the piano. The best song on here is Last Dance,which is my personal favorite. The translations are almost exactly what you hear on her albums but Sarah does a little improv that adds a bit more to the songs thats not in the sheet music. A must for every pianist who is a fan!Great for guitar too.

The Sarah McLachlan Collection.......2005-01-02
Includes: (from Touch) Ben's Song* Vox (from Solace) Drawn to the Rhythm* I Will Not Forget You* Path of Thorns* Lost (from Fumbling) Possession* Wait* Plenty* Good Enough* Mary* Elsewhere* Circle* Ice* Hold On* Ice Cream* Fear* Fumbling Towards Ecstasy*
This is one amazing songbook! I have never been more impressed with a transcription of Sarah's music. There are so many songs here that I absolutely love, and I can just sit down and play them. The arrangements are great--not too hard, but not one-note, occasional chord, melodies either.
The Sarah McLachlan Collection also includes six pages devoted to full-color pictures of Sarah, which are beautiful. It also has lyric pages before each song, with captivating illustrations/photos in the background.
All over, this is so perfect. The arrangements are completely in line, the design is awesome, and there is even a guitar tab in the back, which I (embarrassedly) admit to not having checked out yet. I'm sure it's awesome, though, just like everything else in this completely wonderful songbook.
A feast for the eyes as well as the ears..............2002-04-22
In the "Sarah McLachlan Collection" songbook (vocal/piano/guitar), there are illustrations drawn by Sarah, hand-penned lyrics and a centrefold of concert photos that makes this a feast for the eyes as well as the ears. "Collection" covers Sarah's first three studio albums: Touch ("Vox," "Ben's Song,"), Solace ("Drawn To The Rhythm," "I Will Not Forget You," "Lost,") and Fumbling Towards Ecstasy (the title of which was taken from Wilfred Owen's poem "Dulce et Decorum est" that features the line "An ecstasy of fumbling") ("Possession," "Path of Thorns," "Wait," "Plenty," "Good Enough," "Fear," "Circle," "Ice," "Ice Cream," "Hold On," and "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy").
The arrangements are greatly simplified, especially "Possession." It should be noted that this is *NOT* the piano version of "Possession" that was a hidden track on "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy" (and also featured on the "Due South" soundtrack). This transcription is from the album version, and it is very, very basic. You will want to add your own embellishments to make it workable.
However, most of the songs closely resemble their album counterparts and are a joy to play. I love the shimmery buoyancy of "Vox," the Loreena McKennitt-like musings of "Drawn To the Rhythm," and the high-strung melancholy of "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy." This is a wonderful addition to any fan's Sarah McLachlan collection.
(Note: there is a section devoted to guitar tabs for all of you guitarists out there)
Fumbling Towards Ecstacy and more!.......2002-02-21
Guitar chords & addition tab section, piano, and vocal music. Sarah's sheet music is kinda weird sometimes, but it works. All the songs look fairly easy to play (on piano), but I haven't had time to work on any from this book yet. It includes a few songs from her first 2 albums, then the entire Fumbling Towards Ecstacy album. There are also a few pages of great photos of Sarah.
Simply Wonderful!.......2000-04-01
I personally love this book. The songs are a bit simplier than the album version, but these versions are so great. My favorite to play on the piano is Mary. I really recommend this book to anyone who loves Fumbling Towards Ectasy.
i was disappointed.......2000-02-09
I really loved the CD. However, this book was not good. I expected a lot more. The songs were simplified. The song I really wanted to play, Posession, was not the piano version on the CD. I think that it is not a good book to buy if one is a serious piano player.

Ravenous Sarah McLachlan fans will be happily sated by this sophisticated cookbook-cum-fan letter. With Plenty: A Collection of Sarah McLachlan's Favourite Recipes, the Canadian musician reveals the inventive ways she copes with touring hardships: by taking refuge in Full of Grace Soufflé, Sweet Surrender Lobster, and Grandma's Upside-Down Apple Tart, to name just a few.
To make this possible, McLachlan hired a professional chef to cook for her band and crew while on tour--Jaime Laurita, trained at the Culinary Institute of America. In collaboration, McLachlan and Laurita share meat-free recipes that borrow from Thai, Mediterranean, Italian, and Japanese cookery--all heavy on veggies and fish. Organized neatly into appetizers, entrées, and desserts and beverages, these recipes are suitable for courageous novice cooks and home chefs alike. The appealing presentation includes color photographs of the exotic ingredients, such as galangal and gooseberry, and shots of creative serving suggestions.
Generous additions of material from McLachlan take this book beyond the mere cookbook classification. While waiting for the vinegar to reduce when making Penne Pasta in Balsamic Cream, Sarahphiles can indulge in photographer Kharen Hill's color and black-and-white concert shots, candid everyday photos of tour and home life, and McLachlan's own commentary on almost every luscious dish. She has this to say of Writer's Block Oatmeal-Raisin Cookies: "When trying to write songs after experiencing writer's block, one sure-fire remedy is baking cookies. It's easy and they always turn out great. I can't say it makes the songs come any easier, but it does cheer me up!" This culinary gift to fans and lovers of sophisticated food sings its own song of plenty. --Stefanie Durbin
Customer Reviews:
Plenty.......2005-01-02
This is a wonderful cookbook, providing food every bit as good as Sarah McLachan's music and an extra look into Sarah's life at home. For Plenty, Sarah got together with her chef, Jaime Laurita, and made a collection of some of her favorite recipes.
Plenty is interspersed with amazing, full-color, full-page pictures of both Sarah and the recipes. Sarah did the background illustrations and commented on both the pictures and recipes.
This cookbook is actually one of the best I've ever found--its dishes range from Tzatziki to Caramel Custard, from Thai to Italian. The recipes are easy to follow, the food delicious, and the designing--pictures, words, and recipes--superb. Plenty is a delicious dish in itself--a must have.
Plenty for everyone!.......2003-01-02
this cookbook is great! for one thing, i love sarah's music, so it was interesting to see this different side of her. for another thing, the recipes really are great! there is definitely something for everyone in here, from the appetizers,to the entrees to the desserts. out of print? i think it's time to send this one back to the presses so everyone can try it!
yummy!.......2002-10-18
After eating a meal prepared by Jaime, Sarah's chef, i knew i HAD to go buy this book! He assured me that even an inexperienced cook such as myself would find it easy to follow~he was right! The food is delicious and the pictures are beautiful. Easy to follow with accessible ingredients and worth the effort of cooking at home. This is the first cookbook i've purchased in 4 years and it is well worth it.
Great selection of recipes.......2001-10-28
Even if you're not a huge Sarah McLachlan fan, I'd still recommend this book! Sarah and her tour chef have created a lovely collection of recipes that are fun to make and delicious to eat. The book itself is beautiful and that is worth the price alone!
Fine food, workable recipes.......2001-02-06
I purchased this cookbook because I cook and because there is a major Sarah McLachlan fan in my house. Okay, I like her, too. Anyway, the cook here is very happy with this book which relies on easy to prepare Mediterranean style recipes. The recipes are courtesy of the chef who catered Sarah's band on the Lilith Fair tour out of a tiny mobile kitchen. If he can do it, so can those of us with real kitchens. Many recipes are vegetarian with the occasional dairy or fish ingredient. Many are also low-fat. All are gorgeous, satisfying and should suit most tastes. I am envious of the fact that Sarah was backstage eating this great food while I was in the audience, restricted from 3 p.m. until midnight to eating what was sold "in the venue." Note to future festival organizers: some of us don't do fries, nachos with orange cheese, hotdogs and funnel cakes (I attended Lilith in central Pennsylvania). Some of us like vegetables, just like Sarah.

Customer Reviews:
For guitar.......2007-02-26
To the previous comments, this book is not meant for piano. If you read the description it says that the book contains "note-for-note guitar transcriptions with tab." I'm not really sure how they missed that...
THIS IS ONLY GUITAR!.......2005-06-08
I got this book thinking it was written with the treble cleff. I realized after I got it that it had no treble cleff and only had guitar music on it. This book is not for piano players...
Just not there.......2001-09-24
This book provides no more than less of everything. Approximately more than 65% requires improv. because nothing is written. Some of the times, no bass cleff, and sometimes, no treble cleff! Only the singing notes. Hmm...I wonder if you are not Sarah Mclachlan herself, how are you supposed to play this?! I am a one of the hardcore Sarah fans and I would only recommend this book to others who play music with Sarah and of course, her! Well, except you are as excellent as a performer as Sarah. So then, you will have fun with this book.
Product Description

Customer Reviews:
Very disappointing.......2005-02-25
Unfortunately, this book does not do justice to Sarah McLachlan's music. I love her music but this book was really disappointing. You can barely recognize any of the songs when you play from this book. In my opinion, the arrangements are very poor. Granted this is easy piano, but I have played other similar books and they sound much better. I highly recommend NOT to buy this book. As a matter of fact, I will be more than happy to send you my copy. I rated this book with two stars because of the nice cover.
The Sarah McLachlan Collection.......2004-12-03
Includes some of Sarah's songs from Touch, Solace, FTE, and Surfacing.
At times, the "easy piano" of this can get slightly irritating, but that is easily remedied by the purchase of the other Sarah McLachlan Collection, which is slightly more on the mark. However, this collection is perfect for when you want to sit down and PLAY something-you know the times: you need to relax, you're waiting for someone or something, et cetera, et cetera. These are songs you can just sit down and plink out-it's a bit of a relief.
This is definitely a Sarah collection worth getting. Just plop down on the bench, sight-read a few of her totally amazing songs, and feel good about yourself. Cheap thrills, I know, but it really does work.
