[78-L] Whiteman's"Sweet Sue"

[david.diehl at hensteeth.com]

Take a deep breath everybody. Now exhale slowly. "Sweet Sue" on Columbia 50103-D is take one. I have a copy in front of me. The dub of take one on red label Columbia exists in two forms with identical mx and take numbers: 24050-1. I have both copies in front of me. The original release is truncated as per Avakian's notes. Later copies are fine-groove dubs of the same take. What are the odds that you have discovered the find of the 21st century?
 ZERO!
