CD Reviews

Jazz at it's best

B. Pardue | Burlington, WA United States | 10/11/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Riverside Records was one of the greatest jazz labels in music history and this boxed-set represents the label and it's artists very well. Back in the vinyl days I used to buy any jazz record with the Riverside label. Thelonious Monk is my favorite but there are many jazz greats represented. These CD's are well mastered too, they all sound clear, sharp and deep. A great set."

Great compilation!
