Review

Singers! All of you should line up and kiss Chuck Sher's feet! For doing these genius fake books for us, I mean a world without them is inconceivable. MARK MURPHY --Personal correspondence

This is an incredible selection of songs, such beautiful songs, many of which one never sees printed. And as always in the books published by Sher Music Co., they are represented accurately. MARIA SCHNEIDER --Personal correspondence

Sher Music's Real Book series just keeps getting better and better. The Standards Real Book is the closest thing in print to The Great American Songbook. MARK LEVINE --Personal correspondence
