Release Date: 2014-03-14

Label: The Intense Media

10 CDs, each with an individual printed slip case, all inside a hinged printed box.

This box set exists under the same catalog number and barcode with different front and back covers respectively stating either "16 original albums on 10 CDs", "17 original albums on 10 CDs" or "18 original albums on 10 CDs". The musical content is identical but the way the number of original albums included is counted differently on these three versions due to CD7 containing a total of originally three Django Reinhardt albums.

Timings and content:
CD1 - 78:51 contains Wes Montgomery - The Incredible Jazz Guitar Of Wes Montgomery and Kenny Burrell - Blue Lights, Volume 1
CD2 - 44:16 contains Jim Hall Trio - Jazz Guitar however, the original LP Pacific Jazz PJ 1227 also included "This Is Always" (which is omitted here) as the master tape for that session has been lost. The final rack here, Too Close For Comfort, was included in other reissues as a bonus track.
CD3 - 72:13 contains Herb Ellis, Jimmy Giuffre - Herb Ellis Meets Jimmy Giuffre and Mundell Lowe - Guitar Moods
CD4 - 60:19 contains Tal Farlow - A Recital By Tal Farlow (but in a track running order not previously seen elsewhere) and Joe Puma - Joe Puma without the track What Is There To Say from the original and other earlier versions of the album and instead with a track called Helen
CD5 - 78:39 contains Jimmy Raney, Bob Brookmeyer - Jimmy Raney Featuring Bob Brookmeyer and Howard Roberts - Good Pickin's
CD6 - 67:13 contains Freddie Green - Mr. Rhythm and The Oscar Moore Quartet - Oscar Moore. The latter is missing the track Warm Up and has a different running order compared to the original 1955 version and other reissues.
