Black & White 78s were released during and just after WWII. The excitement and quality of the Black & White masters have never before been captured in true state-of-the-art performances. Each master has been processed to offer you the opportunity of hearing these magnificent historical performances in their genuine brilliance. Because of the rarity of these recordings, which were pressed on primitive vinyl compound or re-ground shellac, it is hoped that the importance of the music will more than compensate for any sonic imperfections.

Original 78s from the collections of Robert Altshuler, Hank O'Neal and the Institute of Jazz Studies, Rutgers University, Newark, NJ.
