Released as a 4-panel Digipack, each volume of the new collection includes 3 CDs (nearly 4 hours of listening) and is accompanied by a 40-page booklet containing biographies and notes in French and English, with original photos and illustrations. Each artist s contribution has been enriched by a fresh selection of essential tracks covering a period that goes well beyond the previous edition of the series. The first 12 volumes of this prestigious 30-volume collection were released in April 2014.
