[Dixielandjazz] Johnson/Snowden CDs

[Steve Voce]

I used to have all Lonnie Johnson's LPs on Prestige (from the 50s or early 60s), with Snowden, Victoria Spivey and tenor sax Hal Singer.
They were wonderful. I mistakenly let them go when I sold a lot of LPs, but had transferred most of them
to CD. I didn't know any had been issued commercially on CD. If so, the Snowdon duet and the one Lonnie did
unaccompanied are absolutely splendid.
