Jazz Divas: Celebrate the Classic Voices of Jazz

~ Release by Various Artists (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

Notes

Typical Direct Source assemblage: decent to good (pretty much unrelated) material apparently without royalties to pay, making this greedy little bundle a perfect fit for making quick money. This is good for you if you're a bored elevator and don't know better.
