An examination of the origins and value of the Real Fake Book and then moving to a breakdown of a real book chart and how these charts relate to the various approaches the guitarist can take in developing these. Ultimately of course we want to make music and we cover how a simple RB chart Is a valuable source of much of the standard jazz repertoire.

Also, we consider different musical contexts such as solo guitar, guitar with bass, guitar with bass and melody instrument, guitar quartet, etc., and how they relate to the essential elements of music namely, rhythm, melody, harmony, and form.

I should also mention that there are Real Books written in different keys, for instance, an Alto is in Eb and a Tenor is in Bb and a Trumpet is also in Bb. Gaining insight into how to use a Real Book might open up doors to beginning your own small group, which beats Netflix by a long shot.
