Gid Tanner made the next master, with unknown accompaniment, and Puckett and
McMichen recorded on the same day, but not necessarily in the same time period
since Smith's Sacred Singers and the Seventh Day Adventists Choir account for 9
masters in between. This doesn't necessarily that everyone recorded in the
exact sequence of assigned numbers, I suppose. The Columbia Books just say
"guitar" for Downhearted Blues and "violin & guitar" for Downhearted Blues, and
then piano for the next two (unissued) sides.

I had heard that Riley Puckett & Clayton McMichen are actually the musicians that accompany her? I looked up the credit in both Tony Russell's book as well as Godrich & Dixon and sure enough, both groups were in the studio that day & the matrix numbers are very close. Unfortunately, G&D lists the accompanying musicians as unknown. Does anyone know for sure? Just wondering before I stick my foot in my mouth somewhere down the road!
