Blueberry Hill was a 30 minute recorded preview of the proposed CBS series “Blueberry Hill”. In the cast were Benny Carter’s Orchestra, Ernest Whitman, Mantan Moreland, Lou Mel Morgan Trio, Hattie McDaniel, and The Charioteers. 

The series was never aired on any of the four (NBC, CBS, Blue, Mutual) radio networks. It was evidently produced as “Jubilee” (I assume, at or by by CBS) for the AFRS (Armed Forces Radio Service).
