I just read the end of the liner notes. To quote: "And before closing, we should mention that there are many more superb albums in the Vanguard Jazz Showchase, including the brillant Ted Brown/Art Pepper ablum, FREE WHEELING, plus albums by Sam Most, Urbie Green, Don Elliot, Nat Pierce, and Dave Burns. Mel Powell and Bobby Henderson have one further album each, and there is an unissued album of Johnny Mercer songs performed by Ruby Braff and a quartet featuring Eddie Condon on guitar. Whether these items are issued by Mosaic or other companies, this music deserves to be heard."

I could not agree more with the last statement about these deserving to be heard.  All of the session that I have heard listed above are just as good (bettter in some cases) than what Mosaic has just issued. I encourage everyone to contact Mosaic to advoacte for one more set. I don't believe Mosaic has ruled it out especially if the sales of the first 2 sets are good and folks ask for more!!!!

thanks! that it's not on discogs suggests that it must be pretty rare... (that bsnpubs doc is pretty misleading in this particular case because it gives a completely wrong tracklist...)

I can only find a copy here:

The Lord discography matches the album. It’s strange that is wrong in the link.

amazon.com is where I found the covers I linked in the Vanguard discography thread. Never trust any online source without a second independent one.
