I have obtained one on e-Bay one or two years ago. Don't ask me to scan it, this operation would damage it.

Yes I have a copy also. The binding was not so good it seems. Some of the pages are no longer attached.
I was in a music store several years ago and I am still kicking my self for not buying another music book. The cover was the cover of the Carnegie Hall album. I don't know what was inside of it. I picked it up but was a little short of cash so I didn't buy it. Went back a few days later and it was gone.
Anyone ever hear of it? Been driving me nutz for about 30 years.

Doh! This songbook and its contents are listed in Northern Lights Discography section: http://nlightsweb.com/lib/rendisc.htm#OTHER
See also http://www.progbibliography.de/songbooks.htm#Renaissance
Neither one mentions a second songbook that Joe believes he saw (could it have been a single song sheet music?)

Content of page 10 :
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction
I'm grateful for this opportunity to write the introduction for the
Renaissance song book, because it gives me the chance to
record my thanks to Michael for the music, and to Jon, John and
Terry for their part in the writing and arranging of each song. And
of course, many thanks to Annie for her beautiful interpretations
of the lyrics.
All of the lyrics I write are about people I know, or know something
of. Many of these in this book are about Annie and the events and
people in her life at the time the songs were written. We've all
been working together from the first album "Prologue", to the
current "A Song For All Seasons".
I very much enjoy working with Renaissance, and hope that you will
get much pleasure from these songs.
Betty Thatcher

I bought a copy many many years ago - still have it, but the binding isn't good anymore - some loose pages!!
A fantastic book, great arrangements - as far as I can tell they are pretty similar to the recorded works - have played all the songs a lot of times on piano - doesn't quite sound like John Tout though - and I wont go into the fact that I've been singing along myself....
