 This album has NEVER been available on legitimate Compact Disc or in any other way, manner or format.

A comprehensive five-volume Charles package; the ultimate anthology if you're seeking a complete portrait. It isn't as concise in focus as the R&B boxed set and was quite expensive when issued in the early '80s. But as a full Charles portrait, it's essential.
