30th Anniversary 11-Disc SACD Box Set!
Deluxe 11-disc SACD box set commemorating the 30th anniversary of Venus Records.
Established in 1992 by producer Tetsuo Hara, Venus Records has continued to be a leading jazz label in Japan. In honor of the label's 30th anniversary, 10 jazz and music critics selected songs for a sold-out 10LP box set released in 2022. In response to the interest in the LP box set, Venus is now releasing a SACD box set.
The SACD set features 10 discs, similar to the 10LP version, but with the addition of one bonus disc. The bonus disc is selected by Tetsuo Hara. Additionally, the set is housed in a gorgeous box and includes notes from the each critic who selected the content for the set.
