Hi Larry,
The Jazz edition of the “Just Real Book” that you asked about for the most part is excellent. The 250 songs have the chords noted by hand. They are large and easy to read, but are quite different looking than printed chords. The chords choices are very good, with only a few skinkers in the whole book. There are many songs that you don’t find in the standard fake books.
HIT THAT JIVE JACK
MOMENT’S NOTICE
TIMES LIE
YARDBIRD SUITE and many more along with the standard stuff.
