Truly a “best of” compilation of vintage cool funk …

Excellent choice cuts. While the Jams are vintage they are also timeless. These seem to get better with age and each time I listen to it, the old cliche “like a fine wine” applies.

I was also impressed with crystal-clear quality and rich dynamics of the recordings, yet nowhere does the CD cover mention whether the recording is digitally remastered. –Amazon Customer Review
