CD ...Volume 1 is, effectively, an expanded re-issue of BLP 5028, Jay Jay Johnson, with Clifford Brown,... with 3 alternate take 'bonus tracks' added from the same 1953 recording session.
CD ...Volume 2 is, effectively, a "two-fer" re-issue of the two 10 inch LPs, BLP 5057 and BLP 5070 (The Eminent...Vol. 2 and ...Vol. 3), with three alternate take bonus tracks from the 1955 recording session.
Both CDs were also re-issued in 1997 and in 2001. The 2001 CD releases contain the same material as their CD predecessors, respectively, but in a different track order.
