Or that Stephen Davis of The Phoenix said "... all the genius on these records can now be heard conveniently, and that certainly is a pleasure." Or that Billboard's Ian Dove commented: "It is an impressive package and as it is being geared towards the youth market, should come as a mind opening surprise on campus." Or that Michael Cuscuna, writing in Record World, said "With the impressive catalogs of Prestige and Fantasy, we should see a lot more." For Bob, for Stephen, for Ian, for Mike and for you, we have some good news.

And for radio people, a taste of each of these classic albums in the new set has been assembled in one convenient sampler package. We call it "PRP-2". But you can call it significant.
