Note: Matrix 055228-1 is listed in discographies as being issued on Victor 27278, however, this take has eluded us and therefore we cannot confirm its existance. In addition, the metal part (and any test pressings) are no longer in the physical posession of BMG. The CD release on Classics 624 (Lionel Hampton 1941) and RCA (J) 90-95 (LP) both list Lost Love as using -1, however, -2 is the take that is used.

(V) LIONEL HAMPTON AND HIS SEXTETTE: Marshal Royal (cl, as), Lionel Hampton (vib, vcl), Sir Charles Thompson (p), Ray Perry (el-vln), Irving Ashby (el-g), Vernon Alley (b), Lee Young (d), Hampton Rhythm Girls (Evelyn Myers and 2 unknown) (vcl).

Producer's Note:
This set contains all of the sessions led by Lionel Hampton for the Victor label from 1937 to 1941. Although the sound quality of these sessions will differ from track to track, we have made every effort to obtain the best possible source copy which, in the case of this set, was theginal metal parts and test pressings.

In addition to the original Victor file cards and ledgers, the following sources were used for this discography: The Jazz Discography by Tom Lord (Cadence Jazz Books), Jazz Survivor by Marshal Royal (Cassell Pub.), Jazz Records 1897-1942 Sixth Edition by Brian Rust (Storyville).
