Notes:

When Columbia began its reissue series Columbia Jazz Masterpieces in the 1980s, the label produced a series of LP and CD anthologies for broadcast use, with spoken introductions for each track. Volumes I, II & III are compiled into a 3 CD set, with each track introduced by Wynton Marsalis, providing background about the selection. This boxed set was sent to radio stations intended for broadcast and were not sold commercially. There are no lists of personnel, composer/lyricist credits or track timings, though each track references the specific album reissue from which it was taken. Marked Demonstration/Not For Sale on the tray card and individual discs.
