The book has easy to follow diagrams and an accompanying 90-track music CD that you can hear how it should sound. Even if you can't read music, you'll learn to find effective and inspiring chords and how to play simple major and minor chords. Next, you'll learn how to find and use memorable chord changes and sequences; create harmonies; and use chord inversions to smooth transitions.

Worth the $22.95 price just for being a great source of inspiration--a jump starter for beginning songwriters, How To Write Songs On Keyboard is much more. It will put any would-be songwriter on a good path to effective song structure, melodic consequence, and memorable lyrics. From Backbeat Books at 866-222-5232 or www.backbeatbooks.com
