The takes
What the numbers mean
918 is a matrix number: Prestige gave every tune it recorded the next number in one running series. Most dates kept only the take that was issued, so there's seldom a take number beside it.
| Matrix · take | Title | First out on |
|---|---|---|
| 8125A | Broke But Happy | PR 7584 |
| 8125B-4 | Blues On The Delta | PR 7584 |
| 8126A-5 | Jumpin' With Judy | PR 7584 |
| 8126B-3 | Blues On The Bayou | PR 7584 |
