This edition presents two complete original albums by the great Quincy Jones big band, both of which received a five-star rating in Down Beat shortly after they were recorded. This Is How I Feel About Jazz (ABC-Paramount ABC149, recorded in 1956) was Jones’ first LP as a leader. His previous recordings had been mostly as a trumpeter, arranger and/or conductor for other musicians’ orchestras, such as Lionel Hampton, George Wallington and Dizzy Gillespie. The Great Wide World of Quincy Jones (Mercury SR60221) presents the outstanding 1959 Quincy Jones orchestra. As a bonus, a live version of one of the tunes from the latter LP taped in 1961.
