[Dixielandjazz] Fake Book Project; Sheik's books

[dwlit at cpcug.org]

Before spending a lot of time putting stuff into Sibelius, you might check
with Craig Johnson, who has put several OKOM thousand tunes into the
program. He has a list of them available.

Re my "Dixieland Fake Book Vol. 1" (all my books are in ENCORE 4.21), I
now have Frank Mesich's BASS CLEF and Eb versions of the book in hand, I
need to review them, which I shall do when "20s-30s FB" is out (I'm now
printing out the master) and after I've reprinted "30s-40s FB".

Dave G. and Kevin might want to visit my website for complete info and
contents lists of my books.

On the "Books" page there is a link to a sample page ("Clarinet Marmalade")

Cheers!
