There were 6 other Metronome All Stars sessions that were recorded for Columbia - Typically, I don't believe Columbia ever reissued these 78RPM sides on LP or CD.

These were the All Star Bands of' 40, '42, and '46

The 46 was a small combo Featuring Sinatra on 'Sweet Lorraine" and Nat Cole and June Christy on "Nat Meets June" clearly the concept of a jazz all star outing had sucumbed to the demands of commercial "Jazz".

Columbia issued a Harmony lp of Metronome stuff. I still have it.

This is great stuff. Took me a long time to find this disc. Lucky Allen.

That '46 date I found on a 10 inch CLEAN lp that was donated to my local library. One of my better 25 cent purchases.
