[from traycard] Note: Some of the items in this set existed only in their original and somewhat damaged discs. There are sound flaws throughout. Every effort has been made to restore the sound as well as possible. This session is presented in the actual order in which it was recorded. “Nagasaki” was previously issued erroneously as “The Sheik Of Araby.” Due to space limitation, the 10th performance of the session, an untitled Lewis original, has been omitted. It will be added to a forthcoming Lewis reissue.
