Summary: Hands down, the best!
Comment: This volume of jazz tunes was compiled with the musician in mind. I say that because the publishers focused on: a.) accuracy, b.) quality selection, and c.) ease of use. If you're looking for a real or fake book, look no further. This is where to invest wisely.
Here is why this real book differs from the rest:
1.) It is sturdy and spiral bound.
2.) It uses a large JAZZ font for the chords that is easy to see.
3.) The songs are in the ORIGINAL keys.
4.) The selection is excellent.
5.) There is a DISCOGRAPHY included; you can go to the recordings and understand the arrangements it uses.
6.) There is an extra chapter on voicings.
You'll fall in love with the chord changes--so rich and beautiful. I ordered this along with the Just Standards volume, and I can see I'll be using them for a long time.

Summary: This is the way all fakebooks should be
Comment: Honestly, I have a cabinet full of fakebooks and sheet music so it's gotta be something special to get me to spend money on yet another one. The Warner Brothers "Just Jazz Real Book" is something special, and it should be the model that all other fakebooks follow. Easy to read and use, comprehensive, wonderful type, good alternative chordings, etc. I have to use leadsheets on stage and these can be copied from the book and used as they are.... The leadsheets are often one full page and sometimes two but never more than that and never less either (I hate quarter-page-sized leedsheets!). Also included are intros to songs that often get left off of normal Hal Leonard-variety fakebooks in an attempt to save space, especially the Gershwin selections. There's not much fluff here either - it's all pretty much useable and recognizable material that every pro should have. ... I highly recommend this book and hope to see more like it.

Summary: great new series
Comment: warner brothers music has come out with a line of fake books -- jazz, standards, and blues. i have the just jazz book, and it is a winner. the typesetting might be the nicest thing about this book. it has a great handwritten look to it, balanced layout, and is very easy on the eyes. try playing out of a hal leanard pop or standards fake book sometime -- chord names are written in the same microscopic font used for the lyrics, and are set too close to the lyrics in the lines above them. your head aches after a few tunes.
for me, the song selection is superior to the 500 song monster that's out there, even though it's only (!) 250 songs. yes, that's completely subjective, too bad there's no table of contents posted here so you can see for yourself.
a final nice feature, in the back of this book, is a great short section on chord voicings, substitutions, and chord theory.
