Catalog number is 903 9025
Discogs: https://www.discogs.com/release/14630459-Duke-Ellington-And-His-Orchestra-The-Treasury-Shows-Vol-25

According to Storyville https://storyvillerecords.com/product/the-treasury-shows-vol-25/#

From April 1st, 1943 Duke Ellington had an engagement in New York’s Hurricane Club at 49th and Broadway, originally meant to last 6 weeks. But it wound up to last no less than 6 months, with 6 weekly radio broadcasts. Some of these feature as bonus material on this volume. They were broadcasts on Sunday nights at 7 p.m. and called the Pastel Period, and featured the band playing slower numbers, mood pieces, ballads etc. for listening more than for dancing. 6 months later, Duke Ellington was at the club again, this time for a 10 weeks’ engagement. CD2 contains broadcasts from April 22nd 1944 and from May 5th 1944 at the Hurricane Club in New York.

This looks like 44042201-5 and 44050501-7
