Lead sheets vs. fakebook -- Any difference?
on: June 15, 2010, 10:31:23 PM
Besides a single "leadsheet" and many leadsheets being in a fake"book," is there any differences between those two?

Or is a leadsheet an individual piece and not found in a fakebook?

I thought a fakebook was made up of lead sheets.  Mah!

A book is made up of sheets of paper.

Made up of e-paper from e-trees grown in e-forests.
