Seems like it's actually getting a release...
Not only that, but it's getting a release next month.

Re: The Savory Collection - Update
Haha I can see it too!
In all seriousness it’s already available for pre-order on iTunes/Apple Music, and you can listen to 90sec samples of all the tracks there.

Furthermore; "The Savory Collection, Vol. 2 is expected to be released later this year featuring rare tracks from Count Basie’s band with saxophonist Lester Young that have not been heard since their broadcast in the late 1930’s. Subsequent volumes will follow in 2017."
