I'm not sure if my sound card has just died..I was listening and heard La 
Bolduc briefly, then silence. I may reboot and see what's going on. I have a CD 
set (horrible transfers) of the complete Bolduc recordings and it may be that 
one side was issued under both numbers with different couplings.
