- Original albums from one of the most important independent jazz labels of the 1950s.
- Including milestones by Miles Davis, John Coltrane, the Modern Jazz Quartet, Sonny Rollins, Gene Ammons, Sonny Stitt, Eric Dolphy, Eddie Lockjaw Davis, Thelonious Monk, Art Farmer, Donald Byrd and also swing greats like Coleman Hawkins and Arnett Cobb.
- This 10 CD wallet box follows the successful "Blue Notes" series and presents "Prestigious Hits": original albums and stars playing the best of modern jazz from the 1950s. Bob Weinstock, who started his own label in 1949, is hardly a household name today except among specialists, but his productions and artists are all the more so.
But in the mid-1950s (almost) all future stars were signed to him for a few years in their first creative heyday: Miles Davis, John Coltrane, the Modern Jazz Quartet, Sonny Rollins, Gene Ammons, Sonny Stitt, Eric Dolphy, Eddie Lockjaw Davis, Thelonious Monk, Art Farmer, Donald Byrd and also swing greats like Coleman Hawkins and Arnett Cobb. Here you will find a first selection of these all time classics and favorites, including some names that always remained relegated to the second row but still made important contributions to jazz history like Lem Winchester, Mal Waldron or Jackie McLean.
Rather amazingly, from today's perspective, Weinstock was able to produce so many masterpieces in so few years despite stiff competition with his small label structure. Even Miles Davis, who eventually defected to Columbia, recorded many albums for Weinstock. But even after the departure of many now big and sought-after names, Weinstock was able to successfully run his label on his own, concentrating on straight ahead and soul jazz (he always gave free jazz a wide berth) with musicians like Shirley Scott, Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis, Sonny Criss, Charles Earland, Jack McDuff and many others until 1971.
