"This japanese edition comprehend the two albums from Bud Shank (Pacific Jazz) with the same cover, the Los Angeles picture in white (the one you can see up above, the 1954 session with Shorty Rogers) and the one in black (1955 with Bill Perkins, Hampton Hawes, Red Mitchell etc). I'm sure you know what I'm talkin' about. It's the same picture of some highways taken daylight and night time. You know there are two albums, right? I didn't know this edition was about both the recordings. I thought it was only the Bud Shank Shorty Rogers session from 1954 so you may guess my surprise when I opened the cd and I found the black cover too as the back cover of the booklet! I jumped for joy!!! Two fabolous west coast recordings from the fifties in one (specially priced) japanese cd. The music is simply fabolous for real. If you're reading this review probably you may know how much famous are these Bud Shank's albums from the fifties. Some of the best west coast jazz ever heard. I swear, it's true! Just perfect, you have to hear for yourself to believe. Two rightly super famous sessions. The quality of the remastering is top notch, thanks to the always good japaneses. I can't say which album is the best, the black or the white session. Lucky for us japaneses did it big and packaged them together! Thank you Toshiba Japan!!!!!!!"
