I bought my copies of the pink and blue books directly from Mel Stevens
(he still had some copies left) and they were, indeed, paperbacks (well,
more basic than that). I presume that is their original form as I got
them from him rather than illicit copies. I telephoned him from his
contact details on his website
He sold the rights to Dragonfly Music which was, in turn, bought by Dave
Mallinson of www.mally.com. I hadn't realised he had them reprinted
(edited and corrected and with the removal of some stuff which was still
in copyright) in one volume called Bal Folk until I read your mail.
I take it you know that the tunes from the Massif books are available to
listen to here on Neil's site
http://www.hurdy-gurdy.org.uk/ played on the piano.
I found that a great help (and I was actually half way through making
them available as midis so this saved me many hours of work).

THANKS YOU ALL FOR RESPONDING TO MY EMAIL!! I have gotten alot of good
sites and book suggestions which will help me alot. I managed to find
the pink book at amazon... its is a paperback version... but
nevertheless... Massif Central Tune book No. 1 is now in my house. plus
I found the revised version that Dave Mallison did which combined the
two books (copyright permitting) and now it is in my collection also...
I am still open to any more suggestions...again thank you everyone for
all the help!

There are two books generally referred to as the pink and blue
books. Another source is a set of tunes put together by Mitch, he is
on the list.
Where are you located? What types of dances do you intend to teach?
