Released
in France only, this was also slated for US issue when it was
caught up in the change of regimes at Verve after the label was
absorbed by the conglomerate, Universal Music. This CD achieved
the distinction of being The World Class recording in print the
shortest amount of time. An instant collector's item.
Update:
In November 2006 Universal Music, France reissued "Happy Madness" in a beautiful
24-bit limited edition digipak |
