    As a RSD drop, and with four albums under $20 apiece, this was a real treat. It's got incredible sound quality! Sure, the vinyl gets a bit crackly in spots, but if you're into Art Pepper, don't hesitate, grab yourself a copy!

    In this collection, we find the ultimate result of Art Pepper's collaboration with John Snyder. Featuring 20 tracks (the CD version boasts 50, with 19 previously unreleased), all brought together in one fantastic package. The original artwork, drawing from the art deco style of the 80s, has been kept intact. This set showcases one of the genre's finest saxophonists at his peak. For me, it's just a step below the Vanguard Sessions. P.S. - a fantastic deal at this price!
