Title: Delightful surprise that I could play a song immediately
Review: The Real Book should set the minimum standard for all fake books.As a beginner, I was timid about purchasing this book. What a delight to see large clear type, a song for each page or two page songs that face one another. I even discovered that I could play some songs immediately which was not possible with the same songs in a book such as "This is the Ultimate Fake Book with Over 1200 Songs." In that book the print was so small that I had to squint constantly to try to read the notes. I bought new glasses. Even then, I swore that I would never buy another book published by Hal Leonard. Well, guess what. This is a book also published by Hal Leonard. And it's wonderful.
