Dear John,
I was about to reply regarding the same thing to Steve.
The situation here in Oz with the availability of sheet music is much the
same as in the UK. 
Not available.
Maybe the Yanks are luckier, but I doubt it, when it concerns those great
tunes from the 20s and 30s. OKOM.
John. You spoke true!
However, I am still adamant about the copying of currently available CDs.
No way is it acceptable to copy and distribute them.
Particularly, private CDs financed by the band/band leader.
Even RCA, BMG, etc. jazz reissues.
If the 'majors' (ever again) produce a jazz CD, to burn off a copy for
mates' use will further discourage them.
Kind regards,
Bill.
