Also, the history of how it was recorded should be a model for today's recording artists. The studio was a wonderful church in Manhattan, which became legendary as a model of recorded sound from that era. Back when great players, great tunes, great engineers, and record companies who were committed to preserving a part of history as a segment of their business was the norm.
