[78-L] Jolson V-Disc Material

[Jack Raymond]

Yes -- I think you've found it, David.  The bootleg Jolly Roger edition 
that I own has 13 tracks, but it includes several "rehearsal" and 
"alternate" takes and also includes two tracks of "Swanee," which was 
not on V-Disc as far as I know.  Now if I could just find someone who 
has the CD itself to tell me the catalog number and/or barcode.
