This next is the pre-recording session for the soundtrack to the RKO Radio Pictures short "Duke Ellington and His Orchestra," subtitled "Jamboree."
The recording session was postponed from June 15 to 17 because Ellington didn't have the music ready. Only 1 of the 4 numbers was ready to record on the 17th, and it took 4 hours compared to the expected 3 hours booked for all 4 numbers. The other 3 numbers were recorded in 3 hours on the 19th.
While the sidemen were paid immediately according to the contract, the studio withheld Ellington's fee because it wanted him to cover the extra $600 his lack of preparation cost. Ultimately Ellington's full $2,000 fee was paid on August 3.
