"Jazz Icons" DVD series

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

This series promotes itself with a comparison to the Criterion Collection for films and, having experienced two so far (there are two sets of eight DVDs in boxes), I would have to agree. Vintage concert clips have been cleaned up and the sound improved, and the packaging and accompanying booklets are first class and written by some of Jazz' finest critics. highly recommended. You can start anywhere but, for me, seeing Mingus and Dolphy on on their mid-sixties European tour (I have all the legit and bootleg lps I could find) is a treat, as is the Coltrane footage from 1960, '61, and '65. See the entire sets on Amazon.con
