[TPIN] Real Book

[Boozo Destructo]

This should help:

In a nutshell, it is the gold standard "fake" book for jazz players.
It used to be "illegal" (ie: you'd have to ask for it at the music
shop) but it has since been made legit. You can still find the
"original" real book, which is the one I'd recommend.
