Can't seem to find out much information about this (and other titles in the series), but it looks like it includes her Columbia, Commodore, Decca, and Verve Recordings based on a tracklisting from a German music shop:

Amazon.com order link (priced over $100):

Amazon UK order link (priced at 27 GBP or roughly $40 USD):

If it's really Universal, the price on Amazon.UK is staggeringly good.

It likely includes the 6 discs of masters in the CBS box, (discs 7-10 were alternates); combined with 8 discs of Decca & Verve: Decca masters (imo her weakest period due to the lame arrangements) fit on 2 discs, & complete Verve masters was issued on a 6 disc box); + 1959's CBS Lady In Satin. Adding all 4 likely segments equals 15 discs, so that would make sense.

Despite Amazon listing this as "Decca" & "PID", from the looks of the packaging & the price, I question whether it's one of the Spain PD labels. We'll find out......... If it is, they're probably just ripping & pressing the official releases, so sound q should be fine.

BTW, re my comments on the Decca; if one is interested in BH from that time period, I recommend the Complete Commodore 2 cd set. Much better music than the easy listeningish Decca recordings & recorded in the same years by Milt Gabler who also did the Decca sides.

You mention "other titles in the series". Any idea which artists they are?

Here's a track list, apparently it really is Decca.

Over the weekend, I looked over rather quickly with tracklistings of the other "complete" Billie Collections (as listed on Allmusic.com, as I was too lazy to pull out my individual boxes) on Columbia, Commodore, Decca, and Verve, it looks like there are 4 songs missing from the Verve collection (recorded in 1957, I believe): They Can't Take That Away From Me; Embraceable You; Let's Call the Whole Thing Off; Gee, Baby, Ain't I Good to You. That seems odd, but maybe I missed them somewhere else!

Wow, the Commodore stuff is on here also? For those who don't already own the majority of this, it sounds like a no brainer to me.
