Centennial Collections on Bluebird
Posted: Mon Sep 13, 2004 12:36 pm
Hi all,
Fairly recently a series of 'centennial collections' is being issued on Bluebird.

These sets are 1 CD and 1 DVD. They have a store price of $20
I bought the Benny Goodman and Coleman Hawkins sets.
The sets have a nice biography of the artist. The CD for Hawkins set has recordings from 1929 thru 1963. Plus the videos run around 30-40 minutes.
There are also sets for Glenn Miller, Fats Waller, Duke Ellington, and Artie Shaw.
So far I've really liked the packaging and content. Any other people tried these out?
