The University Of Colorado, Boulder lists the following information. "Jubilee" was the War Department Service Division (SSD) and Armed Forces Radio Service (AFRS) program cataloged as series H-11 by SSD to October 1943 and AFRS thereafter. This was an historic series and the recordings of the series preserved in the Glenn Miller Archive (GMA) collections are an important national treasure. "Jubilee" was conceived and programmed to present African-American artists and their music to the armed forces personnel of the United States and allied nations around the world. During the history of the program, eventually other artists were invited to participate, but "Jubilee" is remembered as a showcase for African-American talent. In additional to big bands, small jazz groups and singers, many talented dramatic and comedic performers appeared on "Jubilee." " "AFRS program announcer: George Dvorak Master of Ceremonies: Ernest “Bubbles” Whitman Studios: NBC Hollywood Pre-recording dates: October 1946 Date of dubbing: Label information: Notes: (1) Some of this material was re-issued on Jubilee No. 293, q.v.
