Query: THE ESSENTIAL RAY CONNIFF

As "old fashioned" as CONNIFF might be to some people, his music is UPLIFTING and ENJOYABLE and never goes out of style. His composition adaptations from music that has been around awhile, some long before him, shows what a "creative genius" CONNIFF really was. Example: Concert in Rhythm Volume 1 and Volume 2 displays his Mastery of great music from some of the "great composers". Every time someone hears that music I am always asked "what great music and what is the name of that - I want to get that CD"? I have many of Conniff CD's which create "the mood" I want for "the occasion". Conniff offers this with his greatest natural musical abilities in his compositions still in demand.
