"Thank you to the reader from San Diego who noticed the error that another reviewer and I each made. The CD I reviewed was
asn=B0000060IW. I cannot comment on THIS cd as I have not heard it, but the contents look good!"
What is this?
Robin S. Smith | Wayland, MA USA | 11/18/2000
(1 out of 5 stars)

"This may actually be a quite good collection which was originally collected for the Smithsonian's American Jazz Heritage in 1998 on a Sony Special Product label. Unfortunately, without more information about tracks or artists, it is impossible to know for sure. IF it is the same collection, you should buy it in a hearbeat--it's a complex, comprehensive, and frankly stunning survey of the American jazz vocalist from 1919 to the mid '90's. The enclosed booklet with incredible detail on the background and musicians of each track is an education all by itself. If not...well, "Armstrong, et al" is not a lot of information to base your purchase on (great as Satchmo is)."
An indispensable collection
full_cleveland | North Olmsted, OH USA | 12/22/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"To answer Robin S. Smith's questions about the contents, it is indeed the collection of works from jazz giants such as Jelly Roll Morton, Billy Holiday, Sarah Vaughn, Louis Armstrong, as well as lesser known singers. The five disc set it divided into sections called "Steeped in the Blues", "Straight out of Church" "Let's Have a Party", "Swinging the Songbook", "After Hours", "Jazz Compositions", "Scat and Vocalese", and "Novelties and Take-offs". Included is an excellent 100+ page book by Robert J. O'Meally which is almost as valuable as the recordings themselves.Highly recommended."
