I have 3: Nat King Cole, Duke Ellington and Ella Fitzgerald.I really like the music on the Ellington and so far the Cole is enjoyable with him singing many standards in a style more pop than jazz. Ella, I have in the car and haven't got around to her yet.
These reissues are from around 1951. The sound is pretty good. These are SACD hybrids, but according to the label they're DDD. Well, the originals certainly weren't digital.
Manufactured 2006 by Membran International. They are listed on Amazon.
