Pawsitive FEEDBACK!

I found your pet astrology section interesting. I never thought about it before but I guess it makes sense since we are all influenced by the stars and planets.  - Lisa - Costa Rica

Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Melody is the true heart of music, often inspired by nothing more than the songwriter's muse. Yet melody can be learned. This book teaches the art of melody and how to write effective tunes. Starting from basics, it covers the essentials — rhythm, intervals, scales, and harmony - and builds to offer a wealth of advanced techniques and tricks. Every musical example in the book is also on the CD, allowing musicians to increase their awareness of melody through both sight and sound.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Great Author, Bad Book
This is by far Rikky Rooksby's weakest book. Not recommended (I own just about all his books, the others are fantastic).



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Received no CD.
I had the same problem as another reviewer. It was sent with no CD. I sent it back, tried to get customer service to help me, received another book sans CD. One customer service person had the cheek to suggest I pay for the shipping to return the item. On the other hand, Rikky Rooksby is a joy to read. He's very, very good at writing these sorts of books -- so if it doesn't bother you not having the CD listed in the description, buy the book anyway.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - no cd with the book
Ordered the book twice and had to send it back twice because their was
no cd enclosed with the book.




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I Can't Believe No One Has Reviewed This Great Book Yet!!!
Then again...Considering the state of popular music...
I guess I can...

I used to play/sing/compose by ear and didn't understand alot of aspects of music theory, but this book breaks it down using (Couldn't be better...) examples ranging from the melody styles of The Beatles, The Smiths, Radiohead, Van Morrison, etc. that makes it fun to learn...and everything clicked!

The first read was Greek, second time I learned how to love my favorite songs in new ways and continue ... Read More
