Since in your original posting, you said "Unfortunately, none of the WGJB's 'World Jazz Records' LPs have been reissued on CD," while my friends and I have several WGJB CDs issued by George Buck but not previousy issued on World, I assumed that none of the previously issued albums had been reissued.  

Dear Marek,
My sincere apology for unintentionally misleading you, and others.
I certainly did say to Bob Ringwald "While I've got your attention. Unfortunately, none of the WGJB's 'World Jazz Records' LPs have been reissued on CD. And that includes the 32-minute long Christmas Album, "Hark The Herald Angels Swing", that started this thread. 
Foolishly, without adding my usual disclaimer:
"To my knowledge" or some-such.

Unfortunately, I was too hasty, careless and relied on my (fading) memory in googling WGJB CDs instead of digging out my WGJB discography.
Which I did when the reference to Jazzology CDs was made.
And found that several World Jazz LPs HAD been reissued by George.

Never do, particularly with me.

I often trip up.
As in missing another WGJB World Jazz LP reissue on Jazzology:
"World's Greatest Jazz Band Plays Duke Ellington" 
	World Jazz WJLP-S-9 reissued on Jazzology JCD-340.

Very kind regards,
Bill (with his head in his hands).
