This is a latest volume of the Blue Note album cover book series. Put together by the same duo that brought you the first 2 volumes, the Ultimate Collection is actually a reformatting of the first 2 volumes into a 7 x 7" format with more than double the pages. The result is just as impressive, with the Reid Miles design and Francis Wolff photography sitting coolly on the pages. Around 400 covers, 287 pages.
