THERE IS A SECOND ONE?

[Sherri · Rating 2 out of 5]

Second volume offering drinks to enjoy with your listening pleasure.

[Carol Keller · Rating 4 out of 5]

This will be the same review for both volumes. This is a great concept, pairing cocktails and tunes. There are many recipes and mostly they are achievable with available ingredients and simple techniques. Album choices were nicely done. The very big problem with these books is the printing quality. Matte paper, dull and less than sharp printing leave some pages hard to read. It’s frustrating to have dark lettering on similarly colored, slightly darker paper.

New volume with more records and more
Cocktails. Lots of fun and good starting place for a party.

It does recycle some of the topics from the first volume. This means you don’t have to buy both to get the full benefits.

I may have enjoyed the first one a smidge better but this great too. Fun to remember all the songs and albums ans definitely want to try a few of these cocktails!
