The Compatibility Catalog
The Compatibility Catalog is a collection of 144 popular songs, 86 of which feature a female lead vocal (by comparison, only 17 of the 120 songs in the Popular Music catalog feature a female lead vocal). The Catalog is comprised of 12 albums of 12 songs each, the thematic titles of which are self-explanatory. The Catalog is so named because the song charts are compatible with the original recordings, and therefore allow for playing along with the recordings from start to finish. The Compatibility Catalog encompasses an unusually wide variety of musical styles and genres, and there is a wide variety of levels of difficulty as well. Unlike the Popular Music Catalog, which is based more or less exclusively on steel string acoustic guitar arrangements, only 34 of the 144 songs in the Compatibility Catalog are based on guitar arrangements, with the other 110 based on keyboard, band, or orchestral arrangements.
As indicated in the catalog listing below, most of the songs in the Compatibility Catalog have been charted in two or three different keys for the guitar. The compatibility with the recordings is made possible by using either a capo or a lowered standard tuning (D standard or Eb standard), and by transposing the chord progression for the song accordingly. The song charts for all the songs charted in multiple keys include separate charts for each key of play on the guitar. Each separate chart has a corresponding chord doc containing suggested guitar chord fingerings. For any guitar arrangement played with a capo or in a lowered standard tuning, the song chart includes two rows of chord symbols, with the upper row indicating the guitar chords played, and the lower row indicating the actual chords sounded. The upper row of chord symbols, if the capo is removed or if standard tuning is used, allows for playing the song on the guitar in different keys. Rhythm musicians playing instruments other than the guitar can read the lower row of chord symbols to play the song in the same key as the recording, or read the upper row of chord symbols to play the song in a different key.
The catalog listing below includes order links in the album title bars that allow for ordering all the charts (CH) or all the chord docs (cho) for that album. The PDF files for the charts and chord docs are stamped on every page with the customer name and order number so as to discourage file sharing and better protect the rights of the copyright holders exact and correct account of all the chords required for playing the song through from start to finish along with the original recording. The song charts can be used by anyone who plays an instrument that makes chords. The song charts include the correct timing of all the chord changes, and you don’t have to know how to read music to make use of them. In truth, about all that is required to start working with the song charts is learning how to interpret repeat signs (see the About Charts page of this website), and learning how to read the chord symbols used in the charts and chord docs. Guitarists in particular should note that in the chord docs, the 18 Common Chords are referred to solely by their chord symbols. The required information for any non-common chords used in playing the song is given in the chord docs in table format, which can be translated into chord diagrams if that is your preference (see the About Chords page of this website). Be sure to notice that the catalog listing includes several categories of information for every guitar arrangement. Also be sure to notice that nine of the guitar arrangements are played in alternate tunings . A careful review of this detailed information will allow you to select songs that are well suited to your playing skills and to your individual learning needs. Finally, you can click on an album title directly below to advance the catalog listing to that album. Enjoy the music!
