Hi Folks. "20s-30s Fake Book (Bb)" is here!
A sub-section of my website is called "Dave Littlefield's Home Page"
http://americanmusiccaravan.com/davepage.html
It has info to help you get into 20s-30s music.
"20s-30s FB", besides the large selection of quintessential 20s tunes and
novelties, in part continues "30s-40s", because it has a goodly number of
early 30s foxtrots and movie tunes. ("30s-40s FB" is selection of old
standards, Fred Astaire favorites, big band classics, and, of course,
great non- and semi-standard tunes I want to revive.)
The 30s tunes in "20s-30s FB" are more obscure, aimed at folks who love
Bing Crosby's early work, the Busby Berkeley movie music, early Al Bowlly
w/ Ray Noble, etc. There's loads of Fats Waller, and a few latter 30s
tunes there was no room for in "30s-40s".
I remind you to visit my announcement page now and again.

It will include book info--the only new ones planned are 2 chord "pocket"
books. However, I do plan to provide and announce additions to Dave's
Page-- tools such as guides to recordings, book indexes of various kinds,
and some "add-ons" to individual books--leadsheets, some of which will be
free, some of which will cost.
