Shelly Manne - Boss Sounds!

Is the Collectables version of this a needle drop or the real deal? If it's a needle drop, I'll spring for the Japanese version.

Thanks,

Bertrand.

I have the Koch Jazz version and it is not a needle-drop. It is listed on Amazon for $6. I don't know about the Collectables version.

As a matter of principle, I've never bought one of their releases and I won't until they spell their name correctly. It's C-O-L-L-E-C-T-I-B-L-E-S, dammit, with an I not an A.

None of their Atlantic jazz reissues have been needledrops as far as I know. I've been fine with all of them. Some of their early CD's were truly dreadful, but they seemed to really clean up their act 15 years ago.
