Album Cover
Louis Armstrong And His All-Stars / Turk Murphy's Jazz Band
A Theme From The Threepenny Opera (Mack The Knife) / A Theme From The Threepenny Opera (Moritat)

Single US 1956 on Columbia label
Jazz and Blues (Dixieland)

Recorded in 1955. Both of these sides were released by Columbia as individual singles. In February, 1956, they edited down the Armstrong version to a friendlier radio playing time, and put the Turk Murphy version on the flip so programmers could have both on one disc.
