Lester Leaps In: Live At Birdland 1951 - 1952

[nighthawk68]

There's a new release for Record Store day on Liberation Hall. Is this really unissued? From the blurb:

This never-before-released set captures one of the most influential tenor saxophonists of all time, live at NYC’s iconic jazz venue Birdland. It features eight tracks recorded on four different dates in 1951 and 1952 for ABC Radio’s infamous “Jumpin with Symphony Sid”program. Host Sid Torin introduces several of the tracks, one of which, “Neenah,” includes a shoutout to audience member Billie Holiday who originated the bebop legend's nickname “Prez” (for “President of the Tenor Sax”). The backing bands feature pianists John Lewis, Cyril Haynes, and Earl Knight; percussionists “Papa” Jo Jones and Lee Abrams; bassist Gene Ramey; and trumpeter Jesse Drakes. The album will be pressed on 180-gram vinyl and features rare photos with extensive liner notes from jazz historian Scott Yanow.

These tracks, the location and the line-ups read uncannily like what's been discussed "in extenso" here:

"Indiana" and "These Foolish Things" not mentioned in that thread did get recorded at Birdland during 1951 too (according to the "Lestorian Notes" discography). 
The "odd man out" is the presence of Cyril Haynes who according to that discography never got recorded with Lester Young. And according to the brief biographies of him I've  been able to ceck at a quick glance the Lester Young Birdland groups would not have been the most likely company he moved in. But who knows ...?
