The list obviously reflects Larry's taste in jazz which lean more heavily on classic, mainstream styles, but the interested jazz fan will find a wide enough variety to be satisfied with the collection.
Larry described the origin of the list in his own words: "People who knew me as a fanatical collector of jazz recordings often asked me what they should buy to start and build a jazz CD collection. After many inquiries, I spent some time putting this list together. Each year, I add about eight to ten albums. The albums cited are excellent all the way through. They don't just reflect one or two good selections. Over the years I have looked at other's lists of great jazz albums and found that there is much common agreement among listeners and critics on many of the greatest recordings. I believe the quality and depth of the list is indicative that there are only about 10 recordings each year which are absolutely fabulous. I am also pleased to share this compilation with others."
