"Es liest sich wie ein WHO IS WHO des amerikanischen Jazz: Diese 10-CD-Box präsentiert achtzehn der größten Namen des Genres - und neunzehn ihrer besten und berühmtesten Alben. Von Miles Davis bis Chet Baker, von Bill Evans bis Bud Powell, von Cannonball Adderley bis Art Blakey - das Beste der Besten. Auch kaum zu toppen ist der Preis, denn diese Box mit insgesamt 19 Klassikern wird im Handel nur etwas mehr als ein reguläres CDAlbum kosten."
