Notes
Source(s): Rigler-Deutsch Index; Victor ledgers.
EDVR vol. 2 notes: This is one of the extremely rare cases discovered in which the electrical remake of an acoustical recording starts the numbering of the takes over again with 1, in this case probably because the electrical takes were originally assigned to CVE-38064 and later corrected to 3863.
Also recorded as C-621.
Victor ledgers: To supersede Vi 6164.
Instrumentation applicable to takes 10-12; instruments not specified for remaining takes.
