Back in the early fdays of the CD era, I bought this seven cassette box set when it appeared in 1985. The tapes are long since gone, and the CD collection only includes the individual titles I have since managed to snaffle along the way. Full listings of the other volumes may seem superfluous, but they are included here as reference points for further pursuit.

Hughesy's assessment: At the time when the compilation appeared, this was pretty much Essential for anyone embarking on a voyage into the Atlantic catalogue.     Outstanding     Appealing     Interesting     Intriguing     Significant     Worthwhile     Acceptable     So So     Why?     Avoid

Track listing: Volume 1 (1947-1952)      Volume 4 (1958-1962)
