Most songs are accompaniment pieces
I love the selection of songs. There are a lot here that i haven't gotten in my other books, of which i have several. There are also a lot of repeats too. I had about half of these songs in other books. My biggest complaint is that a large portion of the songs are just accompainment pieces on the piano. Considering that it is mainly a piano book, you would think that the pianist would get the melody. But that is not the caee. Also, several of the pieces are very repetitive, i.e. playing the same 4 or 6 bars for the entire song with a different measure or 2 at the beginning and end. Overall, this book was underwhelming.

Tasteful arrangements for the more advanced player
Pleasantly surprised with this one. I've been playing for many years and some of the selections in this book are much better arranged than other popular piano sheet music I've bought which included the same songs. There are not many (if at all) 'duds' in this selection. The quality of the arrangements and accuracy to the original recordings is good. I would like to buy volumes more but like other people have noted, the title is very misleading. This is Vol 2 - is there a vol 1, 3, 4, 5 etc? All the way to 500 songs or is this it? I could really find any of the other volumes listed for purchase anywhere.

Great Slsection
There are a great number of really cool songs in the collection. And they're not easy - they're really nice arrangements. Great choice for variety.

This is a thick book
I have no comment on the content -some good, some not so good and difficult for arthritic hands. Biggest problem I have is ....well, let me just say it would be a whole lot better if this were presented in a spiral binding format. Trying to deal with stiff pages with heavy duty clips is very tough.

Favorite!
This is my all-time favorite piano book!!! The song selections are awesome and the arrangements are well done. Some of the songs are fairly easy to learn while others are a little more challenging which is a great combination. I have so much fun learning and playing these songs! If you enjoy the music of the 70s-90s, this book is for you. Personally, I like this book the most out of the entire RS Sheet Music Classic Series. It's the best :) Would definitely recommend!

Misleading cover - otherwise good selection of songs
This is 60 songs NOT 500. The cover is incredibly misleading with 500 in huge bold font and 60 songs in small dark print on a dark background. The songs and book itself are good quality. But giving it 3 stars due to the misleading cover

Not 500 Songs included
The title is deceiving...its part of a series...so you don't get 500 songs in this book
