The record

Thirteen tracks pulled from Blue Note's 1949 to 1959 stretch and issued in 1969, running from 'A Night In Tunisia' and 'Cherokee' to 'Blue Train' and 'Moanin'.' No performers are credited in the listing, only Ira Gitler's liner notes and Francis Wolff's photography, which is a pity -- half the pleasure of a set like this is reading the personnel.
