Top Big Band Albums

Composer and bandleader Darcy James Argue announced 30 + 30 Essential Bigband Recordings. Half of them predate the Grammy for large group, but still I expected more in the union of these sets. 





My Euler diagram is obviously loose. You can find Miles, Miles + Gil, Miles + Quincy, and Quincy separated, as well as ghost bands separated from their originals, but otherwise I didn't fret too much over different recordings or eras representing the group.
