Page "Fake book" Paragraph 10

The Modern Jazz Fake Book was divided into two sections, each indexed separately as Volume One and Volume Two.

The music was transcribed by hand from recordings, and each transcription included performer name, record label, and catalog number.

Unlike today's fake and " real " books that have " jazz ' in their titles, the Modern Jazz Fake Book included no standards, but only original tunes written and recorded by jazz musicians.
