I'd say go with the
legal Sher or Hal Leonard Real Books and pay the "crazy"
99 cents per track. The artists who created this amazing music will actually get paid for what they created.
The reason this one is so cheap is because the folks that sell it
screw the musicians who did all of the real work creating this art and take
all of the money for themselves.
There are legal Real Books linked on the main page of this site. Support
them. Are you really going to learn hundreds of jazz standards off the original recordings
this weekend? Purchase a couple of tracks for now and buy a legal Real Book.
I could understand back in the day before the legal editions came out, but now???....buying these illegal ones is just a conscious decision to rip someone off.
Just a preachy old fart's $.02.
