Yes, the Fake Book<\/em> . . . An essential tool for the gigging musician and anyone who wants music books containing “hit” songs without a lot of filler.<\/p>\n

The Fake Book<\/em>, in case you’re not familiar with it, is basically the simplest version of sheet music available. It is a collection of songs written with only the melody, lyrics and chord changes over the appropriate beats. Usually, there is no arrangement, no intros or endings, no specific instructions on “how” to play the song. Hence, the word “fake” \u2013 musicians are supposed to take the basic information and simply “fake” it.<\/p>\n

Fake books are essential for personal growth as a musician. Typically you will learn hundreds of classic songs from fake books long before you ever hear them recorded. Seriously – there are those who genuinely believed they’d discovered “Autumn Leaves”!<\/p>\n

Fake books and their predecessors have been around for decades (since at least the early 1940’s). The one fake book that rose to the top of the heap (for most modern musicians, anyway) was called “The Real Book”, a collection of what were, at the time, the best modern jazz songs, mixed with popular standards. The book was created around 1974-5 by a group of students at the Berklee School Of Music. This book is still the most common book you might find at a jazz gig. It became so popular that even today’s music-writing computer software programs include a notation font that mimics the Real Book’s handwritten manuscript.<\/p>\n

So, how many books should you own?<\/strong> Well, the answer is simple: 44, 76, 106 or 144!\u00a0 These collections all build upon one another, are the most complete in existence and include all The Real Books<\/strong> – in all the keys available – plus dozens of other fake books covering a myriad of styles.<\/p>\n

Stored in .pdf format, just find the songs you want and print them out – build your OWN fake book. Or you can easily download as many books as you want onto a tablet or other handheld device. You can even hook up a bluetooth page turner pedal and off you go! Hands free page turning!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
