Factory sealed cd box set of the Vee-Jay Records : The Definitive Collection.

A New Yorker Top Boxed Set of 2007 New York Times Recommended The precursor to Motown, Vee-Jay Records had a catalog suffused with R&B, blues, soul, gospel, jazz, and pop. This 86-track boxed set contains the cream of the label's run, from 1953 to 1966, including hits by the Four Seasons, the Staple Singers, the Swan Silvertones, Dee Clark, the El Dorados, and many others. The first American label to release records by the Beatles, its enduring legacy of classic singles includes the Spaniels' “Goodnite, Sweetheart, Goodnite,” John Lee Hooker's “Boom Boom,” Jimmy Reed's “Bright Lights, Big City,” Betty Everett's “The Shoop Shoop Song (It's in His Kiss),” Jerry Butler's “Make It Easy on Yourself,” Gene Chandler's “Duke of Earl,” and Little Richard's “I Don't Know What You've Got, But It's Got Me.”

“Vee-Jay took risks and chances … and that fearlessness in the face of the music marketplace kept the company constantly overextended financially and contributed mightily to the label's eventual demise, but the music that resulted was wonderfully diverse and vital, a central part of the sound of pop music in the 1950s and early '60s.”—All Music Guide
