The takes
1 of these 5 takes stayed in the vault at the time: alternates and tunes that weren't issued. Switch to hear only the ones that came out on the records.
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.

|---|---|---|
| 1250 | Circles | PRLP 7103 |
| 1251 | Blue Dots | PRLP 7103 |
