What else do we have? The new Storyville Duke Ellington live set has been pushed into 2011 it seems. Did the major labels put out anything?

Origin Jazz Library
Bob Dunn: Master of the Electric Steel Guitar 1935-1950
http://www.amazon.com/Master-Electric-1 ... l_1#disc_1

The Bob Dunn set is most likely the most relevant reissue for Western Swing in 2010. The audio quality and the notes are top notch. There are many awesome tracks for swing dance DJ-ing, especially if you don't own already the complete Milton Brown and Cliff Bruner sets.
