The earlier date makes sense. Canadian Bluebirds B 4679 and 4681 are Mart Kenney discs recorded May 27/40 and 4683 dates from october 1/40. 4689 and 4690 are also Kenney, recorded March 6/41. La Riviere's records aren't in the July 1942 supplement so they might not have been released till between then and mid 1943 when the next Bluebird catalogue appeared.
