Product Review:
French release. Lovely object and wonderful addition to any jazz collection. 3 discs all NM. Box is in fabulous condition as is the booklet inside. Some slight rubbing and erosion to the pink facade in the top right corner.

Spans from early sides like "East St. Louis Toodle-Oo" and "Black And Tan Fantasy" through to "Prelude To A Kiss" and "Caravan."
