The Darkness: Permission To Land (Guitar Tab)

Is great

Great tab book with detail and every song sounds brilliant. Spent ages trying to work things out by ear and this makes everything clear. I love putting the album on and picking up a guitar, turning pages through this as I listen. The detail in the solos especially is useful and has helped to improve my playing.Bought used and came in great quality, no issues.

The greatest guitar tab for the greatest album by the greatest band in the world ever! My kid has started picking up the songs and it has inspired her on her mission to bring rock to the masses. Praise the Lord for The Darkness!

There are big mistakes on almost every page. Most guitar parts are oversimplified. The solos, especially pieces that feature tapping, are a far cry from what is actually played in the original songs. The fingering favours higher strings to a fault, making some parts not only wrong but also harder to play.I got this mainly for the solos, particularly for the final one on Love is Only a Feeling, and honestly, it would be easier to figure it out by ear from scratch than to correct this.If you are a beginner, this will confuse you.If you are an advanced player, you are better off without this book.

Good/clear tab

Clear and accurate tab for this great album, brilliant to see the singles included too!

This is a sheet music booklet including the guitar tablature and notes to every song on the album plus the Christmas hit 'Christmas time (Don't let the bells end)' and others featured on some of their singles, like the live favourite 'Best of me'. I do believe this book was initially written or supervised during production by members of the Darkness themselves (Justin, Dan Hawkins) so how reviwers can complain about the quality of the tabs is confusing. Since I bought it I haven't stopped playing along to the songs on my guitar. Sometimes the beats of some notes are not fully correct or are just a little misleading and solo/bridge tablature can be over-complicated and difficult to follow. But the rate of their chords, riffs etc are of top class and there is a great deal of variety. Learning songs simply needs effort, concentration and enthusiasm due to the standard the Darkness brothers play at, but I would recommend it to anyone that can pick up a guitar and play because this can rarely be closely compared with other sheet music. The only annoying thing is; as soon as I bought the darn thing on Amazon they reduced it, they've done the same blooming thing with the Friends season DVDs too.

This book is note for note perfect - love is only a feeling is correct, they play it with capoed guitar live - the only confusion can come from every single guitar & note being transcribed. Obviously those of limited ability will find it hard to follow but it's a great learning tool, with black shuck and get your hands off my woman being easy to play and sounding great!
