Ruppli has 5101-3 as the mx. for "Dixieland Shuffle," with no mention of 5101-2. My copy of "Dixieland Shuffle" (15433 in album CC-183) has 5101-3D1 in the runoff.
 
Also Ruppli does have "Big Bass Horn Blues" as 5107-3, but recorded at the October 19 session.
 
He adds Country Washburne on tuba (with Phil Stephens) to the session personnel. Stephens is the only tuba player credited on the six sides in CC-183, though.
