It won't help. I've seen the MMM books, and they contain only dance descriptions. They suggest tunes by name, but don't contain the tunes. Even their regular booklet series does a bit of this. They typically have a tune or two on the left-side page, but they will often suggest one or two alternative tunes by name. This is typically done for "pipe tunes".
