I'll Be Seeing You: 51 Songs of World War II Piano, Vocal and Guitar Chords

This book had me at the African American couple on the cover, but what's inside is even better. It's a collection of the most tuneful and nostalgic songs of the American WW II, from The Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy Of Company B, to tear jerkers like I'll Be Seeing You, and The White Cliffs Of Dover. The songs are not all war-themed; I'm loving that songs like Sentimental Journey, and That Old Black Magic are included too.There are pages of photographs and history that make this a fun book to just curl up with and read. I love this book for the lovely music, the guitar chords, and the fairly easy piano accompaniments.If you're a singer, a pianist, or just love a stroll down Memory Lane with the Greatest Generation, this book is for you!

I love this book. I'm really fond of the music of the big band age, and these are easy enough for me to play. on the piano. (Also has guitar chords.) If you love jazz, especially Big Band and Dixieland, try attending JazzBash by the Bay in Monterey in March. We travel quite a distance to attend every year.

A very good selection of songs from the World War !! era. Those were my teen years so was familiar with half of the fifty songs included in the book. I have never been disappointed with any of the Hal Leonard decade series and this is no exception. The suggested chords which I use to play are well chosen to give the song the familiar sound of the popular recordings. The book arrived in the time given and was in excellent condition as well.

I bought this for one song in particular. Part of the book is dedicated to the times of WWII and will be a boonfor anyone who loves that period. I found it TOO nostalgic and emotional. Will copy the one song and give thebook to anyone who wants it.

Nicely produced sheet music which included historical remarks which were helpful to the musicians I was asking to play these old songs.

Easy to play beautiful songs from the 40s. I'm enjoying it hugely. I have looked in many books of the period for the song, "I'll Be Seeing You" and was so happy to find it here. "...I'll be looking at the moon, but I'll be seeing you" is worth the whole book -- but there are also others equally well chosen that evoke those parlous times, especially for those of us who lived through them.

It was fun playing these World War II songs that I heard many times as a child. It brought back wonderful memories of my family members, now long passed, as they sang and danced to this music. Thank you for making this collection available.

Amazing book to have in my collection, great to be able to play and sing along to these classic war songs.Well worth it and would recommend to anyone interested in this era of music.
