The Real Book – Sixth Edition
For C Instruments.
The Real Book is the answer to a fake book.
Time to throw away that old bootleg edition with illegible engravings and tons of editing mistakes! The Real Book now has been cleaned up with professionally edited crisp jazz-style engravings. You get nearly the identical song list as the original edition, but none of the errors! The best part is that this legally-licensed edition gives credit to the composers of each tune so they get the royalties they rightfully deserve! This is The Real Book you can feel good about using in more ways than one!
Format:
- Professionally copied and meticulously checked for accuracy
- Form within each tune is clearly delineated
- All two-page songs open to face one another

At 462 pages of sheer music, I think this Real Book is a great value!
Each lead sheet has a hand written appearance, with some unusual chord naming methodologies (e.g. sometimes minors are marked with a hyphen rather than a lower case m). That said, the selection of songs is pretty extensive and seems to cover the vast majority of jazz standards.
