>>>The Savory Collection published thus far<<<
Thanks, Mr Wohlers, for that shout out!
I can say, however, from personal contact, that "thus far" is probably "all there ever will be", to some degree anyway. A specific example will suffice. In personal email conversation with Mr Wenzel of Mosaic, specifically in reference to a New York Times reference to an aircheck of Bunny Berigan's "I Can't Get Started" that was in the Savory stash, I emailed him complaining that said aircheck wasn't included, ie, "I bought the set FOR THAT ALONE!!!" I didn't, but, you get the point. He had the misfortune to tell me that the Berigan estate simply wouldn't grant permission. "B*****ds!" I replied. He, ahem, agreed.
I say "Ahem", because he also told me he's a LEM at an Episcopal parish in Harrison, New York, which is:

... because that's him in the first pic on the homepage, singers, upper right. He's also clearly identifiable in the Picture Gallery link. Damn good fella. I say, because I know.
Point, ObAng: The world is truly small, in a way!
