5.0 out of 5 stars A Jazz Time Capsule, July 7, 2007
By 
Herb Zigler (Cincinnati, OH USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Jazz Scene (Audio CD)
Over a dozen years after receiving "The Jazz Scene" as a Christmas present, I'm still delighted by it and recommending it to others. Want to talk about a great gift for a Jazz fan that keeps on giving, this is it; recorded music to listen to, fine B&W photographs to look at, and an interesting text to read. It's a Jazz time capsule from 1950 and may be one of Norman Granz's most underrated achievements.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Masterpiece, December 15, 1999
By 
R. Patton (St. Louis, Missouri) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Jazz Scene (Audio CD)
The Jazz Scene is definitive and sublime in every aspect -- the packaging, the liner notes, and most of all the music. You will understand and enjoy jazz better once you have experienced this CD set. If you have friends or family who enjoy jazz and who are not familiar with the Jazz Scene, do them (and yourself) a favor and order a couple of these at the outset to share with them.

5.0 out of 5 stars This IS jazz. Pure, simple, the essence of feeling. Great!!, February 23, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Jazz Scene (Audio CD)
I have bought this for two friends PLUS myself. If you want to experience the early makings of "modern" jazz then this CD is a must.
