Blue Spirits: 85 Years... - Various Artists - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

"Trying to distill the essence of Blue Note’s catalog down to 2 CDs is a crazy and highly subjective task — somewhat like trying to print all of the paintings in the Louvre on a single postage stamp. Although everyone and their mother is gonna argue about some glaring omission here, there is one thing we probably can all agree upon: thru the years, some of the most brilliant musicians of all time have graced the label’s roster The beauty and breadth of their music simply cannot be denied.

These 2 CDs have a real nice flow… we hope that you dig listening to ‘em as much as we enjoyed curating them for you. Thanks for helping us toast Blue Note’s 85th Birthday!”
