Product Description
The Real Books are the best-selling jazz books of all time. Since the 1970s, musicians have trusted these volumes to get them through every gig, night after night. The problem is that the books were illegally produced and distributed without any copyrights or royalties paid to the master composers who created these musical canons. Hal Leonard is very proud to present the first legitimate and legal editions of these books ever produced. You and your customers won't even notice the difference...the covers look the same, the engravings look the same, the songlist is nearly identical, and the price remains fair even on a musician's salary! But every conscientious musician and music store owner will appreciate that these books are now produced legally and ethically, benefitting the songwriters that we owe for some of the greatest music ever written! 400 songs, including: Air Mail Special * Birdland * Bye Bye Blackbird * Caravan * Doxy * Fly Me to the Moon (In Other Words) * Georgia * Girl Talk * In Walked Bud * I Remember You * I Thought About You * The Jody Grind * Just the Way You Are * Killer Joe * Little Sunflower * Mercy, Mercy, Mercy * Moanin' * The Nearness of You * Now's the Time * Old Devil Moon * Phase Dance * St. Thomas * Speak Low * Stardust * Tangerine * Tenor Madness * Watch What Happens * Whisper Not * Willow Weep for Me * Yardbird Suite * and more.

 The next logical extension in the jazz musician's library August 30, 2008

As I said in my review of The Real Book: Sixth Edition, all jazz musicians eventually have to have a real book. If you started with Volume 1 (you did, didn't you?), sooner or later there's going to be a few tunes you want to play that aren't in there. Chances are very good they are in here. (Some examples of tunes I wanted out of this one include Georgia on My Mind, Fly me to the Moon, and Caravan.) I would say all jazz musicians should have Volume 1 and Volume 2, at a minimum. That'll give you something like 800 songs you could (hypothetically) play. I'm surprised other reviewers say they use this one more than Volume 1, as that will definitely never happen with me and my music. Also, I'm still missing a few songs that I really want to play that aren't in either of these (like Witchcraft and They Can't Take That Away From Me). Maybe I'll buy Hal Leonard The Real Book Volume 3 for C Instruments before long, too. Anyway, you can't go wrong getting this book as a companion to volume 1.
It's just what we had in mind. August 5, 2008
We purchased this book as a gift for a famil and fellow band member. He was ecstatic.
 Great Gift for Jazz Musician January 1, 2008
I purchased this book for my son who plays the upright bass. He really loves it (and owns Volume I). We had a great time on Christmas playing and singing all the old favorites from this book.

This book picks up where Volume 1 left off. The Real Book has always been "The Bible" for all of the standards.
