hope this helps, all reissued both on Classics and Media 7 Masters of Jazz 
cd's (I also have the 12" LP of the Bechet Haitian orchestra record, got as 
a teenager - impressed me very much), it's not Zutty on drums, believe me 
(though he could, listen to the Decca 78 of Runerae Papa from 1936, superb 
biguine)
all the best
