Picked this up used at Jazz Record Center—an excellent overview of Green’s 1960s Blue Note sides:

Cue broken record, but I continue to enjoy well-curated anthologies like these, even when I already have just about every track that they contain. It’s especially useful with an artist like Green who turned in so many outstanding sideman appearances for the same label, making it easier for a collection like this to represent the breadth of his recording for Blue Note. I would’ve enjoyed a fifth disc of 1969-72 selections as well, but that would have muddied the “jazz years” concept of the set as described in the booklet by Bob Blumenthal.

They could have made a nice separate 2CD set of that material.  It would be quite enjoyable and might open up some ears who have written off that era, which stands up as surprisingly strong in retrospec.
