There was a thread that recently disappeared about Nat Riddles music, I believe with Charlie Hilbert. I can't find Nat Riddles cuts for sale anywhere (studio recorded) - where should I look?

I deleted the thread because there was a lack of clarity on the part of my dear friend Charlie Hilbert about exactly what was being offered for sale. The preview contained music that was not at all what he told me would be contained in the collection.
We have since clarified the situation. The news is good.
Here's the truth: The digital collection that Charlie is selling IS, in fact, the complete contents of what is arguably Nat's single best studio album, on a label that everybody here is familiar with--a boutique NYC blues label. The current owner of the copyrights is the rightful inheritor of the label, but she has thus far resisted all my entreaties to issue the collection ON the label or what remains of the label.
So Charlie has taken matters into his own hands. He has renamed the tracks, and the preview is NOT part of the album. But this is exceptionally strong Nat Riddles material, and I encourage everybody to purchase and download it.
I'll be talking about some of the material this Saturday when I give my Nat Riddles presentation at SPAH. The 20th anniversary of Nat's death is this Thursday. He died August 11, 1991.
