"Features tracks from his first recording session in 1948 and continues right up to final session in 1961. "As well as many previously unissued and un-reissued master takes, this set also contains never before heard, alternate takes of some of Hawkins' best-known Modern classics, including his original version of 'The Thrill Is Gone'.
