Hal Leonard has published legal and, to some degree, corrected versions of
the Real Books.

If I had to have only one book, it would be the first Real Book (the legal
sixth edition, of course!). After that, I'm a fan of the Chuck Sher's
products, Volume 2 of The New Real Book in particular. Sher's books are
much cleaner and more reliable than the Real Books, but the original Real
Book is still somewhat of a standard for better or worse.
