Classic Don Byas Sessions 1944 – 1946

~ Release by Don Byas (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

78 transfers by Nancy Conforti and Andreas Meyer. Lacquer transfers by Andreas Meyer. Transfers from the original discs of the Timme Rosenkrantz collection by Nils Winther (information from main booklet, page 38). There are a few major mismatches between track timings listed in the release booklets and the timings on the CDs: CD 2, track 20: 3:30 on CD, 3:02 in booklet. CD 5, track 1: 8:54 on CD, 15:15 in booklet. CD 5, track 6: 7:09 on CD, 16:54 in booklet. The CD 5 recordings arose from a lacquer disc recording machine running at slower than normal 78 rpm speed, so the actual timings of 7 to 9 minutes make sense for a single lacquer disc runnng at half speed. Page 14 of the release booklet shows an image of a single lacquer disc for “Tea for Two” (CD 5, track 6).
