PS: also, the Soundies should be included.
What has become of Musicraft/Discovery?  IIRC some major purchased them, perhaps Capitol - anyone
have contacts - are there any plans to issue Musicraft material, anywhere in the world?
  Best wishes, Thomas.

Hi David,
  I'm interested in having everything HtH recorded.
  There is a 2-CDr set which has been on eBay for quite a while - don't see it currently.  Has the Diamond set
and much more.  I think it initially was offered for bids, which initially were quite high, then became
a buy it now for a premium price.
  Don't remember all it included.
  There is a track listed in the Jazz Discography on the Bulldozers From Jupiter label, perhaps there is more from that session
which could be obtained.
  There also were some listings on eBay for things not in the discography - Armed Forces Radio Service - Basic Musical Library
Volume No. P-472 (SSL-946.
  Would be nice to have all the afrs, macgregor, aladdin, and live material in order and clearly identified.
  Perhaps his daughter would have other unissued material?
Best wishes, Thomas.

Okay, people..send your petitions to HEP. I have enough 40s-50s material for
two CDs and that Christmas album is pretty lousy, but it's still what was left
of Harry in the latter days..I don't know if that one would be worth licensing
or who owns it at the moment (I understand that it was produced by Bernie
Brightman but Larry Kiner issued it, if I'm reading some info correctly).
