Then there's Paul Whiteman's "Sweet Sue", which exists in edited and complete 
versions on ten-inch red Columbia. That confused me for years because the album 
notes (the first Bix set) said they'd "dropped the florid introduction" but the 
side still ran 4'20". Only much later did I find that earlier pressings were 
about a minute shorter and later ones used a complete transfer (with a lower 
matrix number, so they must have tried the edit in 1939 and not used it till 
later, possibly by accident).
