for 300+ favorites
$39.95*
Plus electronic templates
for audience lyrics sheets
Finally, a singalong songbook of sheet music with easy-to-follow melody lines, chords and lyrics for more than 300 oldtime favorites. 
Ideal for singalongs at nursing homes, senior residences or just at your own home. Bound in a loose-leaf binder of durable vinyl, unsnaps for access to pages. (To see a photo of the book, click here. To see a sample song page, click here.)
The songs have been collected and transcribed over the past 18 years by the Hat Band, a family foursome of string players and singers who still lead singalongs three times a week at area nursing homes and senior residences as volunteers.
Sing along with ease is the same songbook used by the Hat Band and is its special project to encourage others to volunteer as singalong leaders. As the band adds numbers to its songbook – it does so slowly – free copies of the additional songs are sent out to those who already have the songbook.
We also send out electronic templates of words to more than 240 songs that can be reformatted into lyrics sheets for audience members, a great way to get audiences involved. The reformatting is done in the OpenOffice program, and for those who don't have that program, we provide a link where it can be downloaded for free.
To order Sing along with ease, email sidleavitt@yahoo.com directly or enter your email address as a comment in our latest blog entry and we will email you. (Your email address won't appear in the comments section.)

About us...
This blog was started as a nonprofit website giving writers a place to publish their work at no cost and readers a chance to read that work and, if they chose, to comment on it. Now we are concentrating on a singalong songbook, also an idealistic project that promotes volunteer music programs at nursing homes and senior residences as well as family singing at home, all through easy, low-cost sheet music. Although we no longer accept new works from authors, all previous submissions are still available in our 'Works' section. We also maintain a blogroll of diverse sites, all well-written, for readers to explore, although at present, no new sites are being accepted for listing. The site's founder and administrator is its first nonfiction contributor, Sid Leavitt, a retired newspaper editor who lives in Lake Katrine, N.Y.
