The Best Fake Book Ever
The Best Fake Book Ever - Sheet Music For C Instruments
860 pages, Item number 1700156ED, $49.95

"The Best Fake Book Ever" really is the BEST fake book ever! It contains over 1000 songs in a great comb-bound book. You'll have no trouble finding exactly what you're looking for with its useful alphabetical listing as well as listings by category.
 
A fake book contains the melody line along with lyrics and chord symbols. It is ideal for a pianist that wants to 'fake' the left hand part (a fake book does not contain the left hand piano part - it has only the melody), or for anyone that plays a C instrument such as flute, violin, harmonica, or recorder.
