I'd like to practice my sight-reading skills and was wondering if anyone could suggest a good fake book with popular songs. I have the Real Book, but I'd like to start with something less complex (not Jazz).

Thank you!

Just a word of caution, but SIGHT-reading skills don't improve so well when you are playing tunes that you already KNOW. There are plenty of sight reading exercise books at your local music store (the one that caters the most to piano teachers is a good bet), and some good software. Sight reading from a fake book is a definite skill in itself, a highly useful one, too, but if you are determined to work on sight reading, at least picking tunes you DON'T know (even slightly), recording the effort, then listening back and comparing to the chart will speed up this skill.

Fake books are more a way of jogging your memory on tunes you know than a proper sight reading primer...

Hi

Great.

But I think most of the book already are there!

Try to search form http://search.4shared.com/network/search.jsp

With the proper search words, file types etc. you will find hundreds.

Regards - and have a nice weekend.
