5.0 out of 5 stars 168 CD! + 3000 hits of Jazz de 1925 à 1956. Excellent, October 6, 2007
This review is from: Ultimate Jazz Archive (Audio CD)
"a monster ! 168 CD !!! A Jazz Lunch For Your Ears, disent-ils en sous-titre, avant de nous souhaiter Bon appétit. Et il en faudra pour avaler le premier demi-siècle de l'histoire du jazz (tout est désormais libre de droits)". Soit 3 179 plages, enregistrées entre 1895 et 1955, des ragtimes de Scott Joplin au bop de Charlie Parker, Tristano, et compagnie. Tous les plus grands sont là - de Scott Joplin et Louis Amstrong à BB King et Ray Charles, de Duke Ellington et Benny Goodman à Billy Holiday ainsi que les plus modernes à leurs débuts (Mingus , Rollins, Davis, etc) - ainsi que des douzaines d'autres artistes, moins connus, mais qui ont influencés cette musiquepar leur talent et leur créativité. Pour ceux qui veulent (faire) aimer le jazz, un cadeau rêvé. "

Essentiellement la période très classique du jazz et aussi du blues.
The Ultimate Jazz Archive avec des enregistrements déjà parus dans des compilations d'où le prix très attractis. Chaque CD est consacré, en général, à un seul interprète. Exemple le set 18 comprend 4 CD à savoir:
Set 18-1 Joe Venuti & Eddie Lang 1926-1933 (53:26)
Set 18-2 Fats Waller 1929-1938 (61:51)
Set 18-3 Coleman Hawkins 1929-1935 (73:00)
Set 18-4 Art Tatum 1933-1941 (50:58)
ou bien le set 31 consacré au jazz moderne
Set 31-1 Lou Donaldson 1952-1954 (64:54)
Set 31-2 Art Farmer 1953-1956 (36:14)
Set 31-3 Tal Farlow 1952-1955 (55:45)
Set 31-4 Charles Mingus 1954 (41:52)

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic collection, May 6, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ultimate Jazz Archive (Audio CD)
The music collection is really encompassing, although don't expect to get every piece of music from every artist listed. The great thing about this collection is that it gives you so many artists that you get to see the evolution of jazz from a ragtime era to bop, and even a little bit of cool jazz. Do expect the recordings to be somewhat rough, but there is nothing the producers of this product could do to make that better; the recordings reflect the times they were made, and that is awesome in itself.
