We strongly suggest that you review the information provided on Amazon carefully before selecting your choices. Artists develop and draw upon their own repertoires of standard numbers which appear, in various combinations, albeit with occasionally different treatments, on a succession of albums. It is worth studying the available information to avoid unwanted duplication (although the variations are often interesting in their own right). On the other hand, compilation albums and sets can be of varying degrees of comprehensiveness, a factor that is often reflected in a wide range of prices. Where appropriate, we have tried to give choices that cater to all budgets.
BEWARE of Complete Recordings. This may be a misleading title in some cases and refer to a specific period, a specific record label or a specific line-up. To avoid disappointment, check the Amazon track listing and product details before ordering.
