Hi Dr Dean :wave:

There are many different Real Books, and also different editions of each one.

Each book contains completely different tune lists, and the editions will contains slightly different tune selections and alternate chord changes.

I’d recommend checking the Index Page before buying to make sure it contains the tunes you want to learn.

Using Amazon there is usually an option to “Look Inside” and it will show you the index page.

I provided some additional information on the Real Books here:

Hope this helps :sunglasses:
