This is a radio transcription of the Orson Welles Mercury Radio Theater featuring a segment of jazz by the Welles Jazz Band.  The recording is one sided and the platter is an experimental glass compound hoping to replace the lacquer records were usually made of.  Turns out this experiment didn't last too long when folks figured out that glass breaks really easily.  Duh!  Anyway, this is some good jazz and probably rare on this medium.  Enjoy!
