Unable to find info about the release data.
Quite intriguing stuff, apparently from the French Masters of Jazz label: http://www.amazon.fr/Air-Vol-3-1944-1947/dp/B00004TK0Q
Not quite sure what it features (live cuts?) and if or not the material here is unreleased.
If you have any information about this, please help in providing them!
