That CD is just one of many from a series with selections and liner notes by Joseph Lanza. They were originally available by subscription only in the 90s, and as far as I can tell, out of print. It was a great thing for Easy Listening fans. You got a new disc every month with a different theme or "best of" focusing on artists like Henry Mancini, Ray Coniff, Nelson Riddle, etc. Joseph went out of his way to provide the best tracks, sometimes resorting to hard to find releases. Highly recommended if you can find them. After that, Lanza (along with Ashley Warren) went on to produce the Music for TV Dinner CDs for Caroline.
