I got this recently , and was impressed with the collections diversity. What more can you ask for compiled by two specialists in the genre of the jazzy dance .Veteran Giles Peterson and West Germany's finest mixmen Jazzanova.Side 1 is more traditional with classics including Donald Byrd, Roy Haines,Mark Murphy to John Coltrane, this is classic Giles Peterson's colection. Disc 2 is Jazzanova's cutting edge choice of nu jazz grooves remaining pretty cool sleek and downtempoe with choice offerings featuring Two Banks and four a classic from japan's UFO and 4 hero offering my favourites. Whatever your choice of jazz there should be something here for you whether it's the grooves and base of Roy Haines , or the seductive Horns of Coltranes Equinox or the laid back jazz electronica of 4 hero. Even if you are one of these people who instantly say. I DON'T LIKE JAZZ !because if that's the case I'm sure you'll be crossing over once you've heard this collection of kings.Forget the dodgy CD cover just listen to the content.

This double CD compilation is one of the best purchases you will ever make. The first CD sees Gilles Peterson doing what he does best and digging through his extensive record collection in order to route out some sensational Jazz classics in the History section of the compilation Cristo Redentor by Donald Byrd starts the compilation with some lovely harmonies progressing into some classic Mingus and Coltrane. The second of the two parts is Compiled by Jazzanova and features songs from "The Present" kicking off with the beautiful sounds of 4hero and also featuring a live rendition of Bembe Segue's "Mother Of The Future".
