@ABitRusty -

THANK YOU!!! 

Hope the site stays up - was kicking myself for buying another book the other day. 

I always end up going through my books when I first get them, then only use them for reference (like never).  Online is so much better!

I'LL DEFINITELY USE THE REAL BOOK SITE! 

 

Btw, anyone new wanting quick online reference to get started with scales/modes, 20 most popular chords (the notes), popular progressions & song examples:  Key Cheat Sheets - Hooktheory

I think whats neat about the site is on the top left you can transpose the song up or down..so if you look and its not in a key thats friendly to you, try transposing it.   also... alot of these melodies are written out to reflect the base tune.   not to notey....so kind of a beginner friendly selection.  being standards theres going to be different recordings that can be listened to.. which always helps me.
