A Good Mix, But Note...

"This CD is a slightly extended version of the same release by 32 Jazz (the one with supermodel Leticia Casta on the cover). Where the 32 Jazz release has 11 songs on one CD, this new release contains 19 songs on 2 CDs. The song blend is superb; a great Sunday morning disc. Just wanted to give the original 32 Jazz owners a little heads up about this new collection. The choice is yours to invest in another, very similar CD, or stick with the one you already have. For those who are new to both collections, you will be pleased with the quality and mood of this CD."

Replacing an old fav

"I listen to this album for any number of 'quiet times'--rain or shine, alone or with others, busy or not. It's just a nice backdrop. Mellow is the operative word here with a nice variety of lead instruments and not too much of any one thing. I'm a big fan of the "Jazz for the..." series and this one is my 2nd favorite."

Additional comments to previous reviewer; reissue minus 1.

"In addition to the comments made by the other reviewer, I'd like to add, if you compare the original 32 Jazz release (which I have) and the Savoy Jazz release, it is minus one song (Savoy's) "Estate".

That probably meant, if included issuing it as a 3 disc set.

I'm sure on the Savoy reissues, Estate shows up somewhere.

Still, not a bad set."
