I don't know how I managed to miss this juicy item from almost a year ago, but a Duke Ellington aircheck from 1932 has surfaced (well, it's been known to collectors for a while, but it's recently been cleaned up and remixed, by Steve Lasker)... it's the oldest surviving Ellington radio broadcast!... read about it and stream it here... the next two oldest, from 1936, can be found here... well, it's all just gorgeous...
