Hi Gary,This tune is on "Sidney Bechet Vol.2 1923-1930" on Media Masters of
Jazz M JCD 14.This is a French label,
15rue desGoulvents, 92000 Nanterre, France.

Originally issued by Okeh, Taylor sings a 24 bar then a 32 bar stint
followed by Lorenzo Tio 2 bar break then Taylor for another 16 bars. Bechet
is not on this recording, his first recording of Ghost of the Blues was in
1552 with Claude Luter.The tune is included on the cd as a tribute to
Bechet's composing skills.

All this from the booklet with the cd
Cheers, Glen
