Bill,

Great transfers! A wonderful comparison. The BA is clearer I think. Thank you.

John,

I agree with you about the sound. The DD is incised and although it's a very clean disc, it still has that "eh" sound that is not found on the later paper labels. This record was released with a paper label and stayed in the catalog until the doors closed in Oct. '29, but is seldom seen for sale. I do have the original paper sleeve for it and will post a pic when I get a chance.
