More about this product
A club edition pressed for BMG Direct dates the sessions to 29 and 30 May 2003 at Watford Colosseum.[5] Universal Classics and Jazz was a London division of Universal Music, dismantled in 2011 when Decca was revived in the UK.[6] A 2004 European reissue carries a different barcode.[7]
