Greetings from FixitLand!
Me:
> I'm gonna go grab that -2 copy off the National Jukebox right now!
And it sounds like it was transferred at 78.26 rpm...when slowed down
to 76.59 it sounds fine.
The label copy on the NJ site is an Oakland label. I grabbed it,
adjusted the exposure -- the picture is of TAKE 3!

Looking at the EDVR page for matrix PB 9 "Helen Gone": (augmented
slightly)
-1 Destroyed
-2 Hold; mastered and issued on Victor 19398-A.
-3 Chosen as master, but destroyed. Issued on Victor 19398-A, per
David's copy and the pictured copy at Nat'l Jukebox.
-4 Hold; unissued.
I wish EDVR would show the details of the "Hold" takes (Hold
indefinitely? Hold conditional? Hold 30 days? Or not specified?).
Take care,
Joe
