[Dixielandjazz] Glenn Miller - St. Louis Blues March

[Bill Haesler]

Stan Brager asked:
> Did Glenn Miller's A.A.F. Band ever record "St. Louis Blues March". If so, is it available anywhere? 

Dear Stan,
The only version I know of was recorded at RCA Victor, New York for V-Disc on 29 October 1943.
It has been reissued on LP and CD numerous times over the years.
Here it is
