CD Reviews

A GOOD DISC...

Sébastien Melmoth | Hôtel d'Alsace, PARIS | 07/30/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This disc is on the Austrian label Neatwork, and features tracks not covered in the excellent French Cronological Classics series--which is now mostly discontinued.

If you're at all interested in classic Jazz, you should snap up all these discs you can find.

By the way, the Chronological Classics is distributed under the Melodie label."
