A few weeks back I asked if anyone knew waht happened to the test of Gotta Get A Girl, offered on oboy. Judging the available label scan, I concluded that it was a Pathe test, although this company was not known to be that early in electrical recording. \

One helpful reaction that I got said that it might be a Columbia recording, rather than Pathe: Columbia experimented with the lecetrical system and the title fitted  a Columbia session. 

Does anyone know more about this? Just ask for the label pictures. I will gladly email them over.
