Publisher's summary
Have you ever wanted to pick up a musical instrument and just play? Maybe it seems too late in life and, without formal education, just a hopeless dream. Maybe you already have musical ability but don’t know how to take it to the next level.
The great news is that there is a powerful way to learn and develop real music-making skills without countless hours of traditional education. Both beginners and highly skilled musicians can reap the benefits.
Become a real musician if you never were, then go beyond as far as you desire. Perform and sound great for others or just for your own satisfaction.
Be highly effective in creative musical artistry, musical arranging, and composing. Music is something most of us love. Often, it has deep meaning and impact, whether in people’s lives throughout the world or just on a personal level. Would it be life-enriching to learn real musical skills? Would music add a whole new part or dimension to your life? I’ll teach you that it easily can, but how?
From what we traditionally know, learning to play a musical instrument, including singing, takes some discipline. It takes hours of dedicated, daily practice you don’t want to put in.
Perhaps you’ve tried to take piano, guitar, singing, or other lessons, but it just didn’t work out or wasn’t worth the needed time and effort. You feel you don’t have any natural musical talent, and you can’t read a single note.
Well, did you know many famous musicians can’t either? If only you knew a simpler, less formal way of learning and playing music.
Yes, there is an approach to having you play great music in a fraction of the usual learning curve. It doesn’t require you to be greatly gifted or highly knowledgeable of all the music theories and principles traditionally taught.
A very basic and minimal amount of musical knowledge is plenty for you or anyone to make an enormous leap into the world of music-making.
The ways of teaching music are often technical, complex and tedious. They lose their charm, and do not make use of our more natural, creative, artistic powers. The ideas in this book focus more on these skills and abilities. As a result they are more enjoyable, satisfying, and empowering.
Without expensive and extensive training, and whether a beginner or highly skilled musician, you can learn to reach a higher level with your music.
In this book, you will discover the keys in relation to:
- Playing the music you love, but only dreamt of making yourself
- Rising above traditional, complex, and technical lessons
- Honing creative, musical skills without countless time spent
- Seeing the big picture of music and how it really works
- Finding your unique style and taking it to the next level
- Performing and enjoying music beyond what you ever thought possible

Story
The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.

Story
In this brave and moving memoir, Corey Feldman is revealing the truth about what his life was like behind the scenes: His is a past that included physical, drug, and sexual abuse, a dysfunctional family from which he was emancipated at age fifteen, three high-profile arrests for drug possession, a nine-month stint in rehab, and a long, slow crawl back to the top of the box office.

Story
No one other than Warren Zanes, rocker and writer and friend, could author a book about Tom Petty that is as honest and evocative of Petty's music and the remarkable rock and roll history he and his band helped to write. Born in Gainesville, Florida, with more than a little hillbilly in his blood, Tom Petty was a Southern shit kicker, a kid without a whole lot of promise. Rock and roll made it otherwise.

Story
The New York Times best-selling biography of an American comedy legend. After three years of sobriety, Chris Farley's life was at its creative peak until a string of professional disappointments chased him back to drugs and alcohol. He fought hard against them, but it was a fight he would lose in December 1997. Farley's fans immediately drew parallels between his death and that of his idol, John Belushi. Without looking deeper, however, many failed to see that Farley was much more than just another Hollywood drug overdose. In this officially authorized oral history, Farley's friends and family remember his work and life.

The book's structure is logical and progressive, covering a wide range of topics from basic musical concepts to more advanced techniques in performance, arrangement, and composition.

Super detailed understanding of making music!
I got this book because we just received a piano and I'm trying to teach my 7-year-old daughter. Not an easy feat! I actually grew up playing music and can read music well but teaching it is a whole other story! "How to Make Great Music Without Formal Training" gives such a great foundation that I have no doubt I'll be able to teach my daughter the basics of playing the piano. There is a ton of information here that I'll be studying on my second listen. Great work! Narrator's voice is perfect too!

Eye opening and fun
I very much enjoyed this instructional and fun book. Almost felt like taking a short cut to playing music, but much more enticing than those long technique lessons!

Great & encouraging breakdown
You can understand 'how' music works with this book, which is really cool. Think about music as a language -- a mathematical language. Music theory can be really daunting, but when it's broken down to digestible, understandable bite sizes, then all of a sudden you have all these concepts to play with and create with.
I grew up surrounded by music and musicians. I really dig this book.
