Publicity: Michael Bloom Media Relations - 323.258.6342Licensed exclusively and distributed worldwide by Naxos

is an ongoing DVD series featuring full-length concerts and studio performances by the greatest legends of jazz, filmed all over the world from the 1950s through the 1970s. Each of these DVDs features rare performances that have never before been officially released on home video, and in many cases, were never broadcast.

This second series consists of seven titles: john coltrane Live in 60, 61 & 65 Dave Brubeck Live in 64 & 66 duke ellington Live in 58 sarah vaughan Live in 58 & 64 dexter gordon Live in 63 & 64 wes montgomery Live in 65 charles mingus Live in 64

All seven titles are also available in a boxed set with an exclusive bonus disc of unreleased performances by John Coltrane, Dave Brubeck, Sarah Vaughan and Dexter Gordon.

Each DVD, beautifully transferred from the original masters, features a 24-page booklet with an essay written by an authoritative jazz historian as well as rare and unseen photographs. Jazz Icons DVDs are produced with the full support and cooperation of the artists or their estates, who, in most cases, are contributing rare personal photographs, memorabilia, and forewords.

Naxos and Reelin In The Years Productions, producers of the GRAMMY nominated American Folk Blues Festival series, bring the same care and dedication to the second installment of the Jazz Icons series as they brought to the highly-acclaimed, award-winning original series.

The release of Jazz Icons is like the unearthing of a musical time capsulean audio-visual treasure trove of the music that changed the world. From Big Band and Bebop to Dixieland and Cool, its all here and it all swings. These jazz legends, from Dizzy and Count to Louis and Ella, are the Bachs and Beethovens of our generation. From an educational standpoint this series is a gift to our culture. Im honored to be a featured part of it, but Im more thrilled just to sit down and watch it with my grandkids.
