Regarding the two questions regarding the LPs "Roots of Dixieland Jazz" and your "discographical nightmare!" Haarlem Dixieland Band (Regal SREG 2039) I will answer the second one first.

However, the following is what I have,
Note that (for probable copyright reasons) some tunes have been renamed, and confirm several of your identifications.
