The Fletcher Henderson disc (Vocalion & Pathe 1924-5) looks interesting but unfortunately 11 of the 25 tracks have been previously released on the Henderson/Armstrong Forte 3CD set, making it less appealing to me

be aware that the Frog reissue has some of the best sound I have heard on materials of this vintage.

between this and the Fremaux Ellingtons I'm spending too much!

I did end up picking up the Henderson set & agreed it's SQ is spectacular

If only shipping from UK wouldn't be such a drag since Brexit. German post services charge € 6 just for handling, and add VAT to that, on the whole invoice amount including shipping! No fun anymore, as much as I value the Frog reissues.

I usually request removal of jewel cases so the disc(s) is/are usualy shipped in the "letter/small package"category & remarkably cheap to Australia

No but Frog does not flood the marked. So I still buy them.
