For those keeping score, I neglected to include the release number of the Monkey Ward disc - M-8212.

I've only seen a few acoustic/electric splits and never one on Montgomery 
Ward.

I have two or three on the 20s MGM label which have an electric vocal 
(usually Jack Miller or Jack Hart) backed with an acoustic dance 
band...Singin' in the Rain b/w Orange Blossom Time is one which comes to 
mind.

Some time ago I mentioned the 40s reissue of the Whiteman Vi of Rhapsody in 
Blue which has one acoustic side...I had thought is was something rare but 
several of you guys convinced me otherwise!
