Thanks for the recommendation, Mario.
What I do with the fake books, anyone can do. But it takes hundreds and hundreds of hours to complete one, test, make corrections, and finish.
If you buy one, a percentage goes to the authorization company, credit card or PayPal, and the subcontractor who chooses the styles. (If I picked the styles myself, I'd end up using mine, because I know them best). Then there are monthly fees for the web hosting company, shopping cart, bank, Visa/MC merchant's account, insurance, secure SSL certificate, and so on.
I've been audited twice by BMI, so what I'm doing is strictly legal. What I paid for legal advice was worth it.
The Real Book is here, and it uses all Real Styles from PG Music.
https://www.nortonmusic.com/fake37.htmlThere is a lot of free stuff on the Internet. I'm hoping all the work, care, and the benefit of my experience as a career musician and multi-instrumentalist makes my products worth the money. And from what I've found, it's much better than the freebies I've seen on the 'net.
If it's not right for you, that's OK. There is no one-size-fits-all.
