This collection features eight of Woody Herman’s best albums, released originally between 1952 and 1963. An ideal compilation of Herman’s best re-masters ever compiled, this collection is both an ideal starting point for beginners to the great man’s music, an, equally, an extraordinary reminder of some of the best jazz ever made.
