We haven’t reached into the great Franklin Mint section of my dad’s collection for a while. Most of the episodes featuring the Greatest Jazz Recordings of All Time often get blocked by YouTube. 

But I’ve really grown attached to this specific box set lately. It’s filled with some great and legendary jazz singers.

So get ready to hear a variety of voices with various styles in Volume 224: Big Band Bards Record 2.

More information about this album, see the Discogs webpage for it
