This is a good book with some really old oldies starting in the 1910s as well as from the 50s and 60s. There's some good stuff from the 70s, 80s and a few from the 90s as well. The book is nice and small so it can fit in a gig bag easily. But that compact size means you'll need a good pair of eyes (or glasses) to read it.

In a nutshell - if I am old enough to know most of these songs - I am then too old to see the microscopic print. Should have bought the big book.

The printing in this book was too small to be of value to me. I returned it and bought the full sized book. In a public setting with dim lighting, where I'd likely be using it, it would be almost impossible to read. The full sized book is much more readable, but the selections it contains are not as useful to me as those in my other two fake books,the "Ultimate" fake book and my "Standards" fake book.

The print in the book was too small for us to read at the keyboard. It arrived timely and in good shape tho - returned it for credit.

I like the music in this book and ordered it without realizing this is the miniature version. (That is what the words "Real Little" in the title mean.) I had to return it because the notes were too small for me. I am older and have to take off my glasses to read, but I still had trouble see where the notes were. There is a full size version that I have borrowed that works great.

Love this book... It is the best little fake book ever.The only book you'll ever need.

After receiving this book, the only draw back was the size of the print. But that was my fault for not realizing it was much smaller then most of the other Fake Books I've purchased in the past.. Other then that, great selection of songs. Like most other Fake Books, many duplicates from other Fake Books, but overall an excellant choice. I would recommend this book to any professional musician..

My husband loves this book! He accidentally left it at my sister's house and when we would come over they would hide it so that he couldn't take it home. We bought one for them this Christmas and they love it. The only problem with it is that the words are written really small and if people want to have a sing along it is hard for people standing to read the words. I am sure that sounds silly...but people want (and ask) to do it all the time!

some great doo-wap, nostalgic 60's & 70's, some Frank sinatra, Elton Johns' best. Streisand!! Elvis songs Wonderful old sing-a-longs the Beatles Neil Diamond and so much more. it's worth much more than this price. Another thing is you get all the lyrics!!!!!!!
