After only 3 weeks my set left customs. Who knows I might get it next week. It's a whole 59 Km from The Hague to Haarlem.

Yes it arrived.

Just spinning the first disc.

About the foto on page 3 of the book. The woman is Pia Beck the Dutch boogie pianist/singer/entertainer. The man talking to Norman Granz  I am 99% certain is Lou van Rees the dutch impresario. Het got a lot of greats to the Netherlands like Marlene Dietrich and Frank Sinatra.

Finally checked all art again, sent a mail a few days ago and received replacement tray cards and booklets 👍

What's the consensus on this one? Essential or just fun?

I'm on the fence, and already have had a lot of fun in my life?

Or more to the point, how much Hawk is there, and how much Pres?
