Annotation

A carefully assembled compilation paying tribute to the cult radio show "Pour ceux qui aiment le jazz".
This show was created in 1955 on the newly created station Europe 1 (in France).
While nothing is surprising in this set for routine jazz listeners, beginners may find here a tasteful selection worth the pick.
