Feldman says, "Art Pepper is one of the most revered figures in jazz history, and his music continues to inspire listeners around the world. These never-before-released recordings add another chapter to his legacy. We take great care in presenting Pepper's work in the best possible way, ensuring that these packages are something fans will cherish for years to come."
