PhilMH SUBS 23rd Sep 2017		Amazon UK and Discogs both have this as being released in October 1994, but Amazon Germany says 7th November, which I think is more likely as the US release was on Tuesday 8th (both the US Copyright Office and the ISRC site have that date), and it wasn't uncommon for countries outside the US to issue albums the day before the US; in fact, it became so uncommon that it led to piracy (especially in Australia and New Zealand when those countries switched to a Friday release day), and the record industry agreed to adopt Friday as the worldwide release day as of July 2015. It's arguable what the CD title should be - the disc says "Jazz Masters 35", but the spines and the inside of the booklet have the Verve logo placed before that, suggesting that the full title is "Verve Jazz Masters 35", so that is what I have gone with. The booklet seems to have a small error as well, in that it says "Original recordings produced by Norman Granz except track 14 probably by Esmond Edwards". However, track 14 is "Funky Blues" from the 1952 Charlie Parker et al. Jam Session that Granz definitely produced, so the reference to track 14 probably should be for track 13, the 1967 recording of Pet Clark's hit "Don't Sleep In The Subway", which is ok as such things go!
