Re: [ARSCLIST] New National Recording Registry just announced

["Milan P. Milovanovic" <mijel@xxxxxxxx>]

Long time ago, while online searching LOC archives, the search engine 
returned 1949. interview with Pres. Don't know if this has something to do 
with this jam session, it could be the same session...

Best wishes,

Milan

At the press conference, the Library also announced acquisition of 31 rare, 
mint-condition test pressings from blues legend Robert Johnson and discovery 
of a jam session featuring jazz great Lester Young.  Speaking on the Young 
discovery, Loren Schoenberg, executive director of the Jazz Museum in 
Harlem, said, "Yes, this was Lester's absolute zenith and there is precious 
little extant from this period.
