The Ultimate Collectors Limited Edition Box Set. The Atlantic Records
Time Capsule was created in the same spirit that infused the label’s
very beginnings. Just as the company’s founder, to quote the legendary
Ahmet Ertegun, “Wanted to make the kind of records that we would buy,”
we set out to assemble a collection that would tell a story that we
would want to hear. From the onset, the idea was to present Atlantic
Records “from the inside.” The collection was compiled by a small group
of Atlantic staffers, who drew on rarely seen material from the
company’s archives, Ahmet’s personal papers, and the work of staff
photographers through the years.
