Two different CD compilations have been given this title. Both redistribute the material from the two volumes in a very different order. The individual volumes of both CD compilations omit a July 2, 1948, session featuring "Evidence", "Misterioso", "Epistrophy", "I Mean You", "All The Things You Are", and "I Should Care" which were released on a Milt Jackson compilation instead. A "monochrome cover" 2-CD set called "The Complete Genius" follows the track order of the original monochrome CDs but adds all 10 released Blue Note performances of these missing 6 titles between the contents of "Volume 1" and "Volume 2."
1-6 recorded Oct 15, 1947 7-16 recorded Oct 24, 1947 17-21 recorded Nov 21, 1947
Re-issueEdit
The sessions were recompiled, under the same title, on CD in 2001 as part of the RVG series. The cover art for the original 8-song LP was used. While the earlier CD grouped all takes of each title together, the recompilation put the alternate takes at the end of each session.
The July 2, 1948, session featuring "Evidence", "Misterioso", "Epistrophy", "I Mean You", "All The Things You Are" and "I Should Care" was released on Blue Note CD Milt Jackson: Wizard of the Vibes.
