Summary: This is the best fakebook I have seen in 20 years!
Comment: In my 20 years of experience, music fake books have always been plagued with wrong chord changes, incorrectly notated melodies, and very few of them have tunes you would actually need on a gig in the real world. They generally have lots of filler tunes you will never use.
This fake book is unbelievably well thought out. It looks great, you get verses to most tunes, you get lyrics to most tunes, and the chords area absolutely right meaning you can whip this out on a gig without any reservations. As soon I a thumbed though it at the local book store I knew I had to have it. I hope this sets the standards for all future fake books.
Well done Warner Bros!!! Finally a fake book that I can actually use on a gig with confidence because it is correct and it is extremely easy to read. I can't wait for many more volumes like this!!!

Summary: Great alternate chords
Comment: This is an excellent fake that was well thought out. First the song selection is an excellent cross section of Standards.While it contains the "standard" standards such as Moonlight in Vermont, it also has pieces that are often over looked, like "A Sunday kind of love" and "I had the craziest dream". But even if you have these peieces in other compilations, the alternate chording is exciting. I made many new discoveries of great chords.
Each song takes up a whole page large easy to read notes, but one never has to turn a page to finish a song. If it takes two pages they are always face to face. A song like "Evergreen" always seems to require a page turn but is avoided in this book. The sections of the piece are divided by letters. the verse is noted, than the chorus is A the mid section is B and a repeat of the chorus is C. There are some songs with a Section D and E denoting major shift in the melody. This is a big help when singing and playing and in identifying repeats.
I would really like to see VOL.II of the standard series.
