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.

|---|---|---|
| – | In Walked Bud | PR 7330 |
| – | Land Of Dreams | PR 7330 |
| – | Beano | PR 7330 |
