"On April 7, 1945, Duke Ellington began a series of broadcasts for the Treasury Department; the series ended 45 shows later on October 5, 1946. The liner notes from the initial volume promise a release every other month. When the series originally started, World War II was ending in Europe, but an intense struggle was anticipated for Japan. Still seeking to promote war bond sales, the Treasury Department sponsored 55-minute Saturday broadcasts by Ellington from various venues, mainly in New York and some in Los Angeles as well. As a bonus on the first volume, two 1943 broadcasts of the Treasury's Star Parade Show which had Ellington's band as the feature are included
