Here\u2019s a summary of what *is* known, and where the gaps are.\n\n---\n\n## What\u2019s Confirmed\n\n| Credit Category | Details Found |\n|------------------|----------------|\n| **Main Artist** | Chris Standring \u2013 guitar.

        "content": "*Shades of Cool* by Chris Standring is a studio album, not a compilation or greatest hits collection. Here's how I determined that:\n\n---\n\n## Evidence\n\n- **AllAboutJazz** lists *Shades of Cool* simply as one of Standring\u2019s albums with no indication it\u2019s a compilation or retrospective. It\u2019s categorized under his albums alongside others like *Soul Express* and *Velvet*. ([allaboutjazz.com](https://www.allaboutjazz.com/album/shades-of-cool-chris-standring?utm_source=openai))  \n- MusicMagpie lists *Shades of Cool* as a single\u2010disc studio album, released in 2001 on Passion Music (catalog number CDPJA016), with a total duration of ~77 minutes. There\u2019s no mention of it being a \u201cbest of\u201d or a collection of previously released tracks. ([musicmagpie.co.uk](https://www.musicmagpie.co.uk/store/products/shades-of-cool/?utm_source=openai))  \n- Chris Standring\u2019s discography (via Wikipedia and his official site) does not include *Shades of Cool* under his compilation or \u201cbest of\u201d categories; his compilation albums (e.g. *Best of Chris Standring \u2010 Remixed*) are listed separately. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Standring?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\nIf you like, I can check whether *Shades of Cool* contains any previously released tracks (which might blur the lines) or see if there was ever a reissue with bonus material."
