I also use https://bhs.minor9.com/biab/jazz/I/ and https://tamos.net/~bemo/horn-arrangements/books%20and%20hot%20charts/%20Download%20BIAB%20songs%20finale%20files/ but still they are missing a lot of content. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance -Raquel

Our own "Notes" Norton http://www.nortonmusic.com/ does excellent fake book tracks, no melody or lyrics. There are notes under Support about copyright. Jazz relative beginner, starting at a much older age than was helpful. AVL:MXE Linux; Windows 11 BIAB2026 Audiophile, a bunch of other software. Kawai MP6, Ui24R, Focusrite Saffire Pro40 and Scarletts .

In most cases they will appear with a MIDI style assigned, and the BiaB app will suggest an appropriate RealTrack style. It's the only way to please both MIDI and Real style people. Most of the fake disks also have an optional, published music book available. You can open the book, choose the BiaB song, and sing and/or play along. The words and melody are in the books. Free downloadble samples are in the song list section of the fake disks. https://www.nortonmusic.com/contents.html#fake I also have some free songs (without melodies) here: https://www.nortonmusic.com/page-a-f.html https://www.nortonmusic.com/page-g-l.html https://www.nortonmusic.com/page-m-r.html https://www.nortonmusic.com/page-s-z.html Notes ♫ PS, we are in the process of double-checking a new version of Fake Disk #2, The Pop/Rock Fake disk. This features all new styles, since thousands of styles have been created since I made that disk back in the 1990s. We've been working on the update almost a year now. It will be a free update for anyone who purchased Fake Disk #2 from me. I'll post something here when it's finally double-checked and ready.
