I haven't been to Hans' site yet, but I do have 3 CDs copied unprocessed
from the originals and what's remarkable is the audio quality of the
original engineering--a rich, full sound I wouldn't have expected from a
cheap commercial record, let alone on cardboard. This is in stark contrast
to many shellac records from the period. 

Anyone hasn't heard the non-jazz dance orchestras of the time and is
curious, should try the Hits of the Week... Lots of really nice
arrangements, too. 

If you really don't want to spend that kind of money just to satisfy
curiosity, I can direct you to the person who made my CDs--$10 each.
