Please read ALL of the instructions below! Digital songbooks are a very new piece of technology; apparently, a lot of people have trouble with the process and make mistakes. The mistakes all come from not reading the instructions below.
Do NOT order more than one songbook per order.
Do NOT order other items with that order.
DO look for the download link after ordering!
IF you do not follow these instructions, and you are charged for delivery, we will not notify you or change the delivery charge. We will, instead, call the overage a "Stupid tax," and thank you very much for your extra donation!!!
This is a electronic version of the original 68 page songbook for Janis' Stars album, originally printed in 1974. We went into the archives, picked our best copy and scanned it into .pdf format. Not just the vocal, guitar and piano notation, the songbook also contains photographs by Peter Cunningham .
Unfortunately, our one archival copy had a dog-eared corner..we are including that feature to provide the most authentic experience possible (that, and we don't have a better one...)
We had to unbind all of the pages to deliver the best quality document possible. In other words, we had to destroy OUR copy to make yours. But don't feel guilty, just buy the songbook file, print it up, and that old songbook will live on! Of course, if you just let it die without buying one, some people will consider you a bad person. I'm just saying...
When this item is purchased, the buyer will be provided a link to download a 13MB .pdf file containing the entire songbook, including front and back covers, Table of Contents, and foreword, as well as all the charts. The buyer can then print the file on their printer, view it on thier computer, or even take it to a print house for printing on high quality stock and binding.
Note! Facilities such as Kinko's may object to printing and/or binding this because of copyright protection concerns. We have included a permissions note on the very last page.Believe it or not, we had to get permission to do this ourselves. We thank our friends at EMI Japan and Hal Leonard for their willingness to experiment with this new paradigm!
If you experience difficulties downloading or ordering, please contact webmaster@janisian.com. Because it's print-quality, this is a large download; it will take a while.
Please order this item BY ITSELF - NOT with any other items - and select one of the "postal" options (NOT UPS) for the shipping method. This will add a ten cent service charge and should be accurate. Place seperate orders for anything else, including other songbooks; strange things may happen to your freight charges otherwise. It's not our fault, really.
You will be provided a download link in the checkout area - please look for it and use it!! Once you leave that area, you can't go back.
If you decide to purchase a digital songbook, update to the latest Acrobat reader first if you haven't done so. You can get it here.
On the order make sure you check the box for a confirmation email. The email will contain a link to look at your order and the download button so you can get to that screen if you have any difficulties.
