The Great Jazz Trio: Stella by Starlight          (6 of 6 found this review helpful)
  May 11, 2007

The Great Jazz trio SA-CD's contain 10 songs each and there is some overlap to take into consideration, though all of the overlapping songs are alternative takes. The three titles below give you minimal overlap (4 out of 30 songs): - Someday My Prince Will Come - Collaboration - Stella By ... more
