> The Wikipedia article on "The Knoxville Girl" mentions that the earliest recorded version of this tune was made in 1924, but it doesn't go into any detail as to who recorded it or what company issued it. Can anyone confirm or deny this claim?
> 
> I have -- on tape -- a poor copy of Vo 5121, which features Mac & Bob (i.e blind singers Lester MacFarland & Robert Gardner) singing their version of "The Knoxville Girl." Would this be the earliest if the 1924 version does not exist? Does anyone have a better copy? The copy used to make my tape is completely worn out and has a loud crack; it's hard to make it intelligible.
