It has my absolute favorite version of Rockin' in Rhythm on it, as well as the best version of Jones. Perdido is also really good and... well, the whole album is awesome. I'd say it's worth $25, but that's just me. I'm sure it'll pop up again if the price goes too high.

As an aside, there are more unreleased tracks from the same date with Jimmy Rushing as a guest singer with the band. I got them on what I'm sure must be a bootleg, the tracks are really hot but aren't very good quality. Trying to restore them without too much luck :\
