Subtitled "The Quintessential Reinhardt & Grappelli," this is a perfect, concise encapsulation of the Quintette's classic recordings, featuring all of their best-known songs and a number of fascinating extras. Reinhardt certainly recorded more than a disc's worth of essential music, but for people looking for the key to the great gypsy's genius, this collection is unbeatable. ~ Jim Smith
