I'll vouch for the value of Al Levy's fake book CDs. Each tune is done 
with a professional scoring program. The melodies and chords are 
authentic, and the linked index system makes it easy to bring up the 
tune you want to view and/or print. The tunes are in .pdf format, so you 
can view and print them with Acrobat Reader or equivalent.
