Why read it?

1 author picked The Best Fake Book Ever as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I found that once my brain was filled with enough information, I didn’t need more theories. I needed to dive headfirst into the greatest songs ever written and learn from them. A fake book doesn’t have any arrangements; it’s just the melody and chords, but that’s what a song is at its core. Along with recordings, I had everything I needed, and so will you. Feel free to swap in the Ultimate Jazz Fake Book or a classical fake book if you prefer. 

From Deke's list on make great music.
