Just a note of warning: all the professional jazz musicians I've met go back to the
original recordings, not the old Real Book, which is unreliable on a lot of tunes (the
chords at the beginning of Round Midnight are not the way Monk played them, for
instance). I've read that the Chuck Sher real books are reliable.
Playing the RB version around a pro can get you disparaging looks, at the very least!...
