[78-L] [ARSCLIST] Fats Waller aircheck set

[Thomas Stern]

  My recollection is it was large (10 cd) & cheap (a few dollars per disc
i.e. $20-$40 price range).
Perhaps the "Documents" or similar bootleg label.
  Not JSP, which is doing a complete edition of the commercial (studio)
recordings in multiple 4 or 5-cd volumes.  Don't think JSP includes live
recordings????
  The recent SonyBMG (UK) 3-cd may have some live cuts - iirc from previous
posts.  Wonder if
they are "testing the waters" with that series?
  Thanks, Thomas.

Are you thinking of the 2-disc set called "Complete Associated Transcription
Session
1935-1939" ?

This is on the Storyville label.

Naxos have a pair of separate CDs of transcriptions, but their discs lack
alternate takes.
