David Edgar; like Balzac; seems to be the secretary for our times (Guardian)Our Own People: "A courageous and intelligent discussion of race and industrial relations" (City Limits); Teendreams (written with Susan Todd of Monstrous Regiment theatre company) is about the failed revolutionary dreams of a set of teenagers. Maydays compares the phenomenon of post-war social rebellion from Western and Eastern perspectives; That Summer is an "elegantly tangential treatment of the 1984 miners strike" (Plays and Players) "Edgar never lets his drama simplify into ideological diagram...This elegant; humane play keeps its emphasis on the...results that can ensue when diverse lives briefly brush against each other." (Independent)

A Book Worthy of Coheeds Brilliance (Basic Theory Knowledge Required)By CaptainThe Music Itself: Fantastic. Many claim it is Coheeds masterpiece. I agree with them. Theres a lot of heart; a lot of power; and a lot of REALLY catchy stuff on this record. I catch myself humming intricate guitar licks and shouting epic lines. Only fault I find is with the final track "2113". It just doesnt click for me.The Book: Its really well done. It has everything you need... Asterisk.* Obviously you need to know how to read tabs. If you dont grasp that; well; newsflash. Its important to note however; that basic chord knowledge IS required in many cases. The book itself says the chords "reflect the general feel". But many beginners will not even know what C5 or Am mean. Keep this in mind if you are a true beginner; or you are buying this book for someone with limited music theory.Back to the book. It is printed on strong paper; it feels weighty and solid. The staffs have a lot of space between them; so the music can breathe. Ive read a lot of sheets that feel like they should have come with a magnifying glass; so this was really nice. It has the the lyrics; which Ive found to be mostly accurate. (I may be hearing them wrong however.)Lastly; the notation for Claudio (the singer) is particularly well done. It is clear a great amount of attention was spent on the complicated nature of Clauds singing. If you plan on singing while you play; this book has got your back!Verdict: If youre looking for something like this; good news - this is it!
