Various Artists - Verve: The Sound Of America - The Singles Collection

Verve - The Sound Of America - The Singles Collection is a 5 CD collection featuring 100 singles from the Verve catalog - over 20 of which have been out of print for years. Packaged in a stylish, two-part, lift-off box, Verve - The Sound Of America includes a 48-page booklet and extensive liner notes.

Verve - The Sound Of America takes you through the history of one of the most influential jazz labels of all-time with tracks such as Ella Fitzgerald's Top 50 hit 'Mack The Knife' (1960); Stan Getz & Joao Gilberto 's Top 5, Grammy Award winning hit 'The Girl From Ipanema' (1964); Jimmy Smith's Top 100 hit 'The Cat' (1964); and Diana Krall's 'The Look Of Love' (2001).

Founded in 1956 by jazz impresario Norman Granz, Verve Records, along with its associated labels, has consistently been the forefront of jazz's development as both an American art form and an influential commercial force for more than half a century.
