So did I, thinking that maybe the Red Hot Jazz site version had faded 
it out.
Yes. It's there, same as all the versions I have.
(And to answer an earlier query. There was only that one take issued.)
But what amazes me regarding this popular thread started by Hal Vickery 
(which feels like it has been running for a week, but it's only about 3 
days) is that I can't recall anyone praising the short hot solos by 
Bix, BG and Bud Freeman.
Incredible.
Kind regards,
Bill.
PS re another recent subject:
For what it's worth, my experienced jazz ears, years ago, told me that 
it is Tommy Dorsey on the Blind Willie Dunn session, not King Oliver.
