Numerous printing errors in the chord changes
The vast majority of the pieces in this book have extensive and serious errors in the chord changes.Most jazz players refer to the chord changes, so be forewarned. Flat signs are missing everywhere in the chord changes - in the chord root and alterations.There are no errors in the music notes on the staff, which is how you can verify which changes are wrong.Only 5 pieces in this book are accurate.I brought this problem to the attention of Hal Leonard, after having spent over an hour detailing examples of the pieces, measures, errors.Shockingly, they told me that I didn't understand the use of "accidentals" and that I needed to study music theory.I fell off my chair laughing!
Here's the reply from Hal Leonard Customer Service:We think that you are missing a key point of music notation: any accidentals that appear in the key signature are not re-printed throughout the music.We would suggest that you begin studying music theory.Hal Leonard publishes titles designed to help you in this endeavor....
So if you buy this book, enjoy the printed music, but plan to correct the changes in all except 5 of the pieces in this book if you want to play the changes.

Sweet Ellington in very playable arrangements

They have all the intricate harmonies Ellington was famous for, and are just plain fun to play. They are of medium difficulty, but sound great. My favorite "Take the A Train" really swings! I performed several of these numbers at a party and they were very well received. On a few numbers (Satin Doll, for example), by simply playing the bass part an octave lower(or in octaves), the sound was much richer and more satisfying.

Duke Ellington: 26 arrangements for piano solo
This collection includes some of the best Ellington tunes. Level of (piano) difficulty is medium; no lyrics and no chord names are included. Arrangements are "nice" considering Ellington's complex harmonies: they give you the flavor of the band/piano arrangements, but they are in NO WAY near the level of Ellington's playing in terms of complexity and interest. ...
