Questa versione presenta alcune delle migliori performance jazz originali presenti nelle colonne sonore dei film di Woody Allen. Sceneggiatore, regista, attore, autore, drammaturgo, comico e musicista jazz (al clarinetto), Allen ha anche svolto un ruolo fondamentale nell’espansione del jazz e della cultura musicale popolare inserendo registrazioni storiche nelle colonne sonore dei suoi film. Questo CD mette in mostra questa eredità jazz e presenta le registrazioni storiche esatte utilizzate da Allen in 20 dei suoi film.
