Duke Ellington – Time Life Record: Giants of Jazz. 3x LP Box Set. Comp.,1980 I mentioned this yesterday. I believe there are a total of 28 musicians that are covered. 25 more to go. All these songs are from the 78rpm era. It has a very nice nostalgic feel to them.
This is a great set. I own it as well. Any time I see a Time Life music set I pick it up. They have all been good.
At the same time I also picked up Jack Teagarden and Count Basie for $5 each. There were a bunch of others. By the time I listened to check them out and went back, they were all gone. Darn. They are good.
These are good value for money. Everyone that I've found and bought, the vinyl has been in very good condition. If you don't mind buying a "Time-Life", compilation, these are excellent additions.
I don't have any of the jazz ones, but I stumbled on a pile of the Mozart ones years ago. Great pickup, I'd love to complete the set someday. I wouldn't hesitate if I came across any of TL jazz sets.
