Stunning Jazz CD

This CD is the only one I have, and it's pretty decent for now. I get to enjoy Oliver Nelson and all the other musicians. It can't be any better than what agoodbk says about these recordings... Stunning compositions and arrangements, with fantastic playing. This music is incredible!!! I'll probably swap it for a vinyl copy at some point.
