Ellington V-disc recording consist of: aircheck, concert, transcription etc. recordings. I like the sunrise is an instrumental version of the take used on the Liberian Suite Lp. For the LP the vocal was dubbed over. 

Most if not all V-discs were issued on various Classics CD's. Thanks to V-discs we have the never completely recorded Deep South Suite. 

The Ellington V-Discs are on the set below, which may be hard to find and it includes the excellent Deep South Suite.  Ellington's band did not participate in any V-Disc recording sessions and that's why there are no Ellington V-Discs on this new Mosaic set.  I believe the "In the Sjhade of the Old Apple Tree" is from a World Broadcast session and it's one of my favorite Ellington arrangements. The Jazzology label has a 5 cd series that includes everythning (lots of alternates) that Ellington recorded for World Broadcasting.
