...quoting Paul McCartney.

        Can someone refer me to an article or other research which lists 
the different recordings by Sophie Tucker of "Some of these days"?  She 
bought the rights to the song from Shelton Brooks, and is said to have 
recorded it seven times.

        I have a Columbia (British) F.B. 2812, accompanied by Ted Lewis, 
which has Mx# 142950.
        There is a Columbia (American) 3169D, with Mx# W142955=2, recorded 
1926-nov-11, but which looks like a 1930's reissue.
        The same side appears to have been reissued again in the early 
1940's on Columbia (American) 36300.

        Would it be fair to assume that the British and American issues 
are different, and not typos?
