    Also worth mentioning is the thick booklet enclosed in the album, written in English and French, in which Jean-Pol SCHROEDER brillantly covers the history of Jazz in Belgium. A must for Belgian jazz lovers. This double CD set was conceived as a promotion tool for Belgian jazz by WALLONIE-BRUXELLES MUSIQUES.
