Rather than being just another all-hit collection, this CD explores the full depth and range of Claude Thornhill's legendary recordings as a piano-playing big band master for the Columbia label during his golden era - 1937 to 1947.

Another Big Band Winner
Music Lover: Thomas Bumbera from Maplewood, NJ US -- July, 26, 2004
A nice selection of lesser-known Thornhill - including some rare Brunswick sides - highlights another compilation with superb remastering by Ken Robertson, who has apparently found the key to unlock the studio sound of 40s-vinatge Columbia masters. Can't wait for the Teagarden set!
