The Real Vocal Book - Volume 2: High Voice (Fake Book) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Volume 2 of the Real Vocal Book makes easily available the lyrics, melody line, and chords for more than half of the tunes included in the (instrumental) Real Book Volume 3. Selections include You Can Depend on Me, What a Difference a Day Made, Lollipops and Roses, A Dreamers Holiday--lots of classics.

The book is easy on the eyes with notes, chords and lyrics large enough to see from a distance. Once you get used to it, the notation here is in my opinion the very best for jazz. Abbreviating "C minor 7th" as "C-7," for instance, makes for easy sight reading.

The chord choices here are almost always good, though some songs have chord substitutions I'm not happy with (e.g, Where or When).

The "Volume II" book title and the yellow cover color is a potential source of confusion. Note that the Volume 2 Vocal Real Book contains songs from the Volume 3 "instrumental" Real Book (gray or blue covered in the C, B flat, and E flat editions) *not* from the yellow-covered Volume 2 instrumental Real Book.
