Nice collection, but I really regret your decision of putting these masterpieces on what I call a 'DJ Style': One piece right on top of the other.
Music (Jazz) normally, has a beginning, Middle (improvisation) and an end. I think it is a lack of respect to the musicians, composers, producers and to the public not to present the themes in all its beauty rather than squeezing all them in like sardines.

Just look at that list of albums folks!
What an amazing collection of music.
Next to the artists themselves, we have Teo Macero to thank for these masterpieces. And they truly are masterpieces in their own right.
