Norman Granz: the Founder / Various

In jazz circles, few names command more respect than Norman Granz. Although he wasn't a musician, Granz (1918-2001) was as responsible as any individual for popularizing jazz and promoting - through his labels Clef, Norgran and Verve - the careers of many of the genre's greatest artists. And, unlike many of his contemporaries, Granz combined his love for the music with a passion for social justice, championing African-American musicians at a time when those musicians were often exploited and disrespected. In honor of Norman Granz's centennial, Verve/UMe has assembled Norman Granz: The Founder, a four-CD/digital box set honoring his remarkable life and career. Including illuminating liner notes by Granz biographer Tad Hershorn, this historic package boasts a massive chronological assortment of music spanning Granz's groundbreaking career - some never before on CD - and features music by most of the great musicians he recorded, including Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Oscar Peterson, Charlie Parker and many others.
