[78-L] "Country Music Sources" discrepancies

[Thomas Stern]

I've been trying to compile a list of BASCOM LAMAR LUNSFORD recordings.

1. The matrix numbers for the BRUNSWICK recordings (1928) 
listed in COUNTRY MUSIC SOURCES (Meade/Spottswood/Meade) differ
from those listed in 78DISCOGRAPHY.
I've appended the session listing below.

2. OK 40155 I Wish I Was A mole in the Ground/Jesse James
COUNTRY MUSIC SOURCES gives exact date for one side, circa date for the other
even though the matrix numbers are sequential,
and two different locations (Atlanta/Asheville).

3. SWANNANOA TUNNEL listed as a 1949 recording,
as issued in Smithsonian-Folkways CD 40082,
and Folkways FP 40/FA 2040.
Other sources indicate the Folkways 10" LP possibly was recorded by Ralph Auf der Heide, 1951-1952.

ANYONE HAVE CORRECT INFORMATION FOR THESE THREE PROBLEMS?

Thanks!
Best wishes, Thomas.
