HI ALL.
HAVE JUST READ THE POST ABOUT THE KEYBOARD MAGAZINE. DOES ANYONE RECALL A MAGAZINE CALLED THE 'SHEET MUSIC' MAGAZINE. I USED TO RECEIVE IT FROM THE U.S.A. A FEW YEARS AGO. DOES ANYONE KNOW IF IT IS STILL PUBLISHED?
PETE B.

Hi Peter,

Yes, Sheet Music Magazine is still being published. However, now they mail to the U.S. and Canada only according to their website. I was a subscriber for a few years while living in California. It is a wonderful magazine. I pulled the staples out of every issue and filed the music in notebook binders. Still have all of it. They published four editions each month - Easy Piano, Standard Piano, Easy Organ, and Standard Organ. Sure beats paying for sheet music in a music store! Their web address is as follows if you want to take a look:
http://www.sheetmusicmagazine.com

Take care, Peter.

Chuck

Have a browse through Amazon Larry - there are a few there.

I've just had a look - if you type 'fake books' into the search window, it returns over 150 hits......

I subscribed in the mid-eighties when I gave up guitar and started organs. Great magazine. Still have quite a few copies. Fake books are better, but sometimes don't include the whole song.

Hi Chuck, Bud & all.
Thanks for the replies on the 'S.M' Mag..
The ones that I got were originally from a U.K. based company called 'Songs Unlimited' the for some reason they stopped them. I found the music to be very good as it was full stave music and I still have several copies. I did try to find their web site some time ago but without success. Thanks for the address Chuck, much appreciated.
regards
Pete B.

Fake books can be found on ebay also. Sometimes there are ones no longer available. One can save some money too.
