[Dixielandjazz] Fake Books in the 1970s >>Nabor's ?

[Charlie Hull]

Bob Nabors did his first Vintage Jazz fakebook by hand. While it had 
some departures from original chords, it was comprehensive, and widely 
copied and distributed throughout the Northern California OKOM jazz 
community.

He quit publishing it for a while, then started redoing it using the 
Finale scoring program. The result, which included lyrics, improved 
chords, and a lot of tunes not in the original, is a nice fakebook and 
he was selling it for fifty dollars at the time he moved to Chicago.

The last I heard he was having serious health problems. I hope he is 
doing well. He's a great guy and a very good trumpeter. An asset on any 
bandstand.

Sheik's $20 offer is a bargain. Grab it!
