Дополнительная информация: Этот сборник для тех, кто не знаком с жанром, и для тех, кому может быть полезно заполнить один или два пробела в своей коллекции. Этот аккуратно выглядящий бокс-сет состоит из восьми компакт-дисков, содержащих 16 пластинок, которые, в основном, были записаны между серединой 50-х и началом 60-х годов. Техника записи заметно улучшилась в этот период по сравнению с предыдущими годами. Если набор выглядит знакомо, то это потому, что Masterworks выпустила идентичный набор альбомов в 2013 году, который вышел без альбома Freddy King.
