Reviews

whiskydrinker Sep 9, 2017
Comprehensive overview of the most significant part of a rich career - to say the least. This 4 CD collection starts with Roy's very first recording in 1935 (with Teddy Hill's big band), and ends with some of his choicest work from the 50's. The booklet is very informative; it has some fine pictures and complete dates and personel listing. Also; it tells the story of Eldridge's career prior to his first recordings.
