1,200 2-CD Sets

PLEASE NOTE:

The GMBS, Glenn Miller Collections, the producer and manufacturer share an important responsibility that the audio excellence of the recordings, content value of the documentation,
and visual quality of the packaging must be state-of-the-art and second to none.
With this in mind, our release date will now be on or before April 19, 2024
  

Our production manager Chuck Granata adds, "An unexpected equipment issue has delayed the completion of the audio portion of the new Glenn Miller package by several weeks. We expect this to be resolved imminently, and that for the work to be completed in time for a January delivery. Therea re many vendors and partners who contribute to the creation of such an independent project, and we must remain flexible to adjust to complications that arise within the production chain. I hope that the delay does not diminish your excitement for this excellent CD set, a first of its kind by the GMBS and Glenn Miller Collections, which will exceed all expectations." 

The GMBS is making available a handsome Holiday Card that our customers can share with friends and family for whom the new 2-CD set is intended to be a present.
