Fakebook is the fourth official, full-length album released, in 1990, by alternative rock band Yo La Tengo. Comprising eleven cover songs as well as five originals, this album is regarded as a departure from their previous albums due to it containing mostly folk songs. Nevertheless, it manages to represent how diverse the band is musically as a whole.
