Although discographies have listed this as a broadcast over the Canadian Broadcasting Company, no firm documentation
has come forth proving Basie and the band were in Canada at the time of this performance. Radio logs from various
newspapers confirm the title of this broadcast as shown above including one such listing as a “CBS Down Beat” program
(although it is doubtful Down Beat had anything to do with this program). Check DBeats. Other participants on this
broadcast were Don Alfonso’s Orchestra and vocalists Barry Wood and Nan Wynn.

Sincere appreciation to Jonathan Scheuer and Daryl Libow without whose indefatigable support this project would never
have come to fruition.
Special mention must be made of the phenomenal archival disc and audio restoration work done (and generosity) over the
course of seven years by The Wizard of Baltic Street, Doug Pomeroy.
We remember our friend Gene Savory. Without his attention, his father's collection would have disappeared. Without his
generosity, the music would never have been shared with the world.
The National Jazz Museum in Harlem is a proud affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution. Our mission is to preserve,
promote, and present jazz by inspiring knowledge, appreciation, and the celebration of jazz locally, nationally and
internationally. For information about our public programs, archives, history, and membership, please visit jmih.org

Producer’s Note:
Since many of these broadcasts are incomplete programs, there may be other performances that exist in private collections
but were not recorded by Bill Savory and, therefore, not a part of this package.
The sound quality of these broadcasts will differ from track to track. However, the following discs presented
problems that could not be eliminated in either the transfer or restoring process: The following is a list of some of the
more problematic tracks:
John Kirby - minnie the moocher’s wedding day – static throughout
Mildred Bailey / Stuff Smith - The entire “Swingtime At NBC” program was of
particularly poor quality.
Stuff Smith - The Randall’s Island broadcast includes “bleeding” from neighboring radio frequencies throughout.
Glenn Miller - in the mood – high frequency signal noises persist.
