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 |
|---|---|---|
| – | Lonely Avenue | PR 7395, PR 7706 |
| – | Roell | PR 7395 |
| – | Collard Greens | PR 7395 |
| – | When Sunny Gets Blue | PR 7395 |
