Four radio broadcasts aired 1955-1958, not on any Capitol or MGM albums (although studio versions of the same tunes are found there.

The personnel listings on this CD are not always correct. No latin percussion by Toots Thielemans or Johnny Rae - Rae plays timbales on the two tracks where Armando Peraza joins them. Drummers are not always listed correctly, considering Shearing's tour personnel.

Thanks for the Information and the link

Right now I'm listening to the SF Jazz Collective set I have that I return to the most, the "Music of Antonio Carlos Jobim and Original Compositions" . . . . This second disc is pretty spectacular. Great compositions, arrangements, obviously well-rehearsed and exquisitely performed. The sound is so good too--it whispers and roars and never becomes strident or compressed. The energy flows right out to the listener.

I have been making my way through the box and making sure that all of the discs have ripped and play okay.  This series is such a treasure trove, with Ray Nance getting a lot of solo time on this volume.  It is fun listening to the contrast between the tracks that have Nance as the only brass instrument and those with the full (in size and sound) brass section.
