His duets with Lonnie Johnson are available on Complete Recorded Works 1925-1932 In Chronological Order Volume 3 (3 October 1927 To 21 February 1928); all Blythe recordings with Johnny Dodds have been reissued on Classics (1926 & 1927-1928) and Affinity (1926-1940, Part One), and are therefore not included here.
