Editorial Reviews

2009 eight CD box set. The Blue Note Highlights Collectors Box was compiled by Jazz icon Hans Mantel commemorating the 70th Birthday of Blue Note Records. This box set contains four single CD's, and two double CD's, each with their own specific theme. The emphasis is on Blue Note's golden era between 1955 and 1967 with all material taken from commercially available recordings. The CD's almost exclusively feature artists who were protagonists of Blue Note and whose recordings helped to define the Blue Note sound. These high quality compilation CDs include exquisite artwork, liner notes and booklets. 100 tracks including cuts from Miles Davis, Dexter Gordon, Charlie Parker, Hank Mobley, Jackie McLean, Sonny Rollins and many others. Blue Note.
