bu albüm caz a yeni başlayanlar için mükemmeldir. caz a karşı koyulmaz bir istek duyarsınız. ama zaten bir caz severseniz fazla vokal olmasından mütevellit orta değerde puan verip sallanan sandalyenizde viskinizi yudumlarken iyi gider derim! viski olmazsa başka bir içecek de olabilir: 'gazoz' mesela! bu albüm sayesinde bilmediğim ve dinledikçe beğendiğim caz sanatçılarıyla ilk defa karşılaşma fırsatı buldum. hem eser hem de kaynak değerindedir anlayacağınız!
emi firmasının 2006 yılında piyasaya sürdüğü 6 cd'lik albümlerden biri. daha önce, Best Opera Classics 100, Best Piano Classics 100, Best Classics 100 albümlerini de piyasaya sürmüslerdi. fiyat olarak da uygun fiyatlardan satılmaktadır. alınıp dinlenmesi gereken bir derlemedir.
