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 |
|---|---|---|
| 3375 | Just Friends | PRLP 7214 |
| 3376 | I'll Never Be Free | PRLP 7214 |
| 3377 | There Goes My Heart | PRLP 7214 |
| 3378 | Funny | PRLP 7214, PR 7443 |
