The left-hand fingering they give for Barangrill is pretty counterintuitive, requiring chord shapes that I don't think Joni could have (would have) played -- they're awkward as hell. In the version in the For the Roses songbook the tuning is given as DACF#AD, which always struck me as being right. The Passion Play error is baffling since Joel Bernstein himself transcribed the song in the NRH songbook. I hope and pray I don't find many more of these oddities. I guess if we wanted the most authoritative tabs we'd have to go to Joni herself, but something tells me she just don't remember.

I just finished it on my vacation and enjoyed it (well, except for the depressing pall that settles in after you go through all the exciting coming into success part and move into the drugs really have gotten the better of us part). Actually learned some new (but very gossipy) things about Joni.

All the best, Lama Jim Leahy said, > This looks like the book Joel Bernstein has been working on for years, different from the earlier 'Complete.'
