This set comprises programmes 28 and 29 of the Treasury series from 1945, plus two other broadcasts from 1943 (CD I, tracks 19-22 and CD II, tracks 1-3). The sound quality of the latter (recorded at New York's Hurricane Restaurant) is less clear than on the Treasury broadcasts, with a boxy, smothered quality. Yet there is still some fine music to be heard in these seven tracks.
11. Juni 2018 · Volume 25 is the last 2-CD set to be issued. In addition to featuring the last-known Treasury broadcast from the Blue Note Club in Chicago on August 1 1953, this double album contains "bonus" tracks of the band playing at the Hurricane Restaurant in New York City.

Contracted by the U.S. Treasury Dept. in 1945, Duke Ellington And His Orchestra performed a series of public service radio broadcasts to arouse patriotism and sell war bonds to help the U.S. military defeat the Japanese to end World War II.
6. Apr. 2015 · I've only given this issue 4 stars as the final track on CD2 "Don't Get Around Much Anymore" should be 1:12 but is only 5 seconds long! I suspect that this is a manufacturing fault but buyers should be made aware of this. Excellent otherwise, and fortunately this is only a bonus track and not from one of the Treasury Shows.
