Hi all,
Has anyone own these books ? what is the different other than the Real book is newer & smaller than the old Fake book ?
I am looking to book one of these serie to start the jazz 101 tunes. I don't know which one is better at the moment. I heard many comments about the Fake book that it has a lot of error on the chords. Thus, for jazz, the substitute & alternate chords are so important ! Does the new Real book correct all of these errors ?
Thank you for all of your suggestion & feedback.
I don't jump in here a lot. just like to read all the comments. Here in Baltimore Maryland, we have Enoch Pratt Free Library and if you call them and ask for a particular song, they will fax it to you free of charge. it usuall is copied from a fake book, although thet probably have some sheet music as well. Why not try your local library? Give it a shot! Bob Lee
