What's the fuzz?
Every main label record producer has similar lists - but for commercial 
reasons. The outcome is usually similar as well.
Ask Mitch Miller, whoever.

Besides: this is taken from a short, fictional story that Skovorsky 
wrote in the 1950's, partly to provoke the Communist regime whose 
attitude towards jazz was akin to the Nazis'.
Here's what actually was played - and recorded - in occupied Czechoslovakia:

These were leading artists at the time. Please note the tempo (after 
0'55), the occurrence of picked bass notes and scat singing.
There are loads of examples like this to be found if you search youtube.
