5th or 6th

[acglass]

I've been spending a lot of time with the Real Book lately and the question entered my head, "are people around the world using the 5th or 6th edition?" I would have to say that pretty much all students at my college are using the 6th edition but I'm still partial to 5th.

there's a 5th edition .. when did it come out ?

 

[tictactux]

Beats me, I go with the Urtext.

 

[Old Dick]

Yep. My copy is inscribed on clay tablets...

 

[Steve]

btw, I have some "Fake" books too. Are they NOT "Real" ?

It's just the snowbirds that have the low IQ .

I bought the 5th edition when they were still illegal. I got it from a shifty looking guy selling them from under his coat behind the music building on the BYU Campus.
