DESCRIPTION:
good purchase in this item!!! G. Camacho i purchased a book called The "World of Music" for my son's college study and i was very satisfied. school Ever Joule Sky this book was for one of my college classes, it wasnt the correct version but it had most of the similar things as the newer edition.

The new edition has blatant errors ie page 60, the performer is misidentified as Huddie Ledbetter, it is Taj Mahal. Pat Metheny is misidentified as "Bob Metheny" p. 1Good concept but inferior to previous editions The previous editions were actually better.
