After some further listening, I have to correct myself here - many of the tracks sound
much better...
Stop teasing me, it's a lot of money getting that set from the States, but I just gotta have it someday

I remember when I first picked up a copy of "Sweethearts On Parade" with CB and Lionel Hampton. It was on a cheap RCA CAMDEN LP 'filled' with 10 great tracks by different bands. The liner note writer made it a point to tell people that Che Berry plays continuously from the beginning of the record to the end of the record...and he does. Berry just keeps rollin' and playing and rollin' and swinging and playing from the first groove to the last.
I need to play those again. A really great early version of "Boogie Woogie" by Les Brown in 1938 is on there.

Will big bands ever come back?
