This is such a value. As a singer it has just what I need to learn or "fake" a song from the lead sheet with the chord notations. A budding guitarist "borrowed" my first copy permanently, so I'm on my second copy!

Can't enlarge the pages

you can't enlarge the page .. Extremely difficult to see the notes. Can't print a page either. Many songs but what device is to be used so the songs can be seen? I'm sorry I wasted good money on this and I will never get another from Hal Leonard Corp.... Save your money....

Great Song BOOK

This is a great song book addition for my music library. With 1200 songs in one Fake book, you can't go wrong. Oldies, not so oldies, and some newer stuff too.

I liked this book b/c it has about 30 big band favorites that I was interested in, as well as about 30 kids' songs that I'd like to learn, too, like "Who's afraid of the big bad wolf?" I loved that as a kid.
