| The Charles Anderson tune data book is the best one available for the musician who wants to play traditional jazz and pop music from 1870-1970. The central focus of the collection is the 1920s. It is written as melody with chords and lyrics, in concert pitch. It is large and expensive, but the most complete collection you will find, with lots of stuff available nowhere else. |

| As of September 2001, Charles B. Anderson
retired from the sales portion of his Master Fake Book. He asked me to
continue preserving and expanding his work of over fifty years, and to
handle the archiving and marketing. Then, on October 31, 2001, he
departed this world at the age of 82. Please contact me for any future
needs and contributions of unlisted music. Search for specific songs by clicking on the first letter of the tune (left) and searching each page using Ctrl+F and typing in the search string. Any tunes that include verses as well as choruses are listed with page numbers greater than 10,000 but they are also listed separately under Verses. |
| Chuck’s legacy is this unique collection of 9339 songs in lead sheet format. The complete collection was been indexed by Cal Owen. It is Cal's index that was used to create this webpage. |
