Format:Audio CD
A very impressive boxed set,beautifully presented, each cd resembling a minaiture VINYL LP of the original LP. all the tracks are there from the original LPs plus many extra tracks; sometimes these old recordings can sound as if they were recorded in a barn, but all of the 25 cds are superb,I particularly liked Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, Nina Simone Errol Garner and Sarah Vaughan, but everyone will have their own favourite.The set comes with an excellent booklet, giving an insight into the artists. If you are a jazz fan you can't go wrong with this set, it represents superb value for money; buy it with confidence.

Format:Audio CD
Bought it yesterday and without a doubt the best buy this year. I have to add that this box , and new, only made a hole of 39,95 euro in my pocket. Contents is clean with hard-lp-sleeve like covers and booklet with info on all the cd's. Half of the cd's get a 5 AMG-rating, the others don't go down 4.
The cd's are discrete numbered at the side and follow a logic pattern.
Louis Armstrong:Plays WC Hardy,Sarah Vaughan:Sarah Vaughan in hifi,Art Blakey:The Jazz Messengers,Billie Holiday:Lady in satin,Miles Davis:Kind of blue,Dave Brubeck:Time out,Duke Ellington/Count Basie:the count meets the duke,Helen Merill:parole e musica,Charlie Mingus:Tijuana moods,Chet Baker:Chet is back !,Thelonious Monk:Monks dream,Sonny Rollins/Coleman Hawkins:Sonny meets Hawk !, Martial Solal:At Newport 63,Paul Desmond/Gerrry Mulligan:Two of a mind,Benny Goodman:Together again!,George Benson Quartet:its uptown,Nina Simone:sings the blues,Art Tatum:piano starts here,Erroll Garner:concert by the sea,Herbie Hancock:head hunters,Stan Getz:the best of both worlds,Jaco Pastorius:Jaco Pastorius,Weather Report:heavy weather,Wynton Marsalis:Marsalis standard time vol 1, and last the original soundtrack from Bird-Charlie Parker.
For the price I payed, you never can go wrong.
