A Week at the Blue Note
: :This six-CD set has its origin, no pun intended, in pianist Chick Corea's desire to go live with an acoustic band that needed absolutely no studio gimmicking or afterthought. In that spirit, he debuted the sextet, which features Corea alongside alto saxophonist Steve Wilson, tenor saxophonist Bob Sheppard, trombonist Steve Davis, bassist Avishai Cohen, and drummer Adam Cruz, with music from one evening in this stretch on one CD.

The Centennial Edition - Highlights From 1927-1973
: :The 24-CD Centennial Edition of Duke Ellington's RCA recordings was the crown jewel of 1999 reissues. There's already been a single CD extracted from the set, but there's inevitably greater depth in this three-CD package. As an ancient emcee announces on 'Cotton Club Stomp' from 1929, Ellington was not only 'the greatest living master of jungle music,' but also the most daring and imaginative artist at work in American music, a composer who could span the boisterous and sublime.

Bringing his profound blues sensibility to ...
