Thanx Ryan-

I saw the box set, but it is likely out of my friend's budget or even more likely that he wants the entire LP/CD as it was originally issued. He has a ton of stuff.

I will mention the Proper Box to him!

Thanx, but he needs the CD.

The LP was available for decades on 12 inch LP. Looks like the CD came out in 1989 and it's gone.

Those UK prices for the 10" version seem pretty 'optimistic'.

Nope....not the one.

These all BC sessions with several alternate takes from 1 or 2 sessions, plus the 2 live broadcasts.

To fill out the LP, they put 2 broadcasts with Benny Carter sitting in with Gene Krupa's ork in 1941....
