Dear Roger,
Thank you for that confirmation.
My Verve LP went when I bought the Kid Ory Verve Sessions on a Mosaic CD set.
I was interested to hear that the "Milenberg" spelling was used by Verve.
Sid Bailey's comprehensive Discography of Kid Ory (both 1996 and 1998 editions) has 'corrected' the Milenberg Joys" spelling to "Milneberg Joys" throughout.
Probably based on the use of the alternative spelling on the 1953 Good Time Jazz record labels.
All good stuff for pedants like me.
