Okay, all you opera nuts out there.
Can anyone tell me what the original 78rpm label / issue number
and matrix number for this item is?

Opera Collection Teldec, 0630-13824-9 (this is a CD)
Kurt Weill,  Die Dreigrosscher Opera (Threepenny Opera)
13  tracks recorded 7 XII 1930 (would that be Dec. 7, 1930?)
Lewis  Ruth Band, Conducted by Theo Mackeben
All other tracks (?) recorded on different dates.

The Hawaiian guitar solo is on track 8 "Zuhälterballade" (The Pimp's Song).
Instrumentation? Personnel?
