I don't have reliable verified information about the specific production details of "First Time! The Count Meets the Duke" by Duke Ellington and Count Basie that would allow me to write an accurate factual summary meeting your standards. While I know these two legendary musicians did record together, I cannot confidently verify the specific recording conditions, studio location, engineers, producers, or technical details without risking providing inaccurate information. I recommend consulting authoritative sources such as liner notes from the album's release, the Library of Congress jazz collection, or detailed discographies of these artists for verified production information.
