New recordings of both tracks, recorded 28 Jan 1947 in Hollywood, CA (this catalogue number was originally issued 15 Jul 1946, credited to Roy Acuff And His Crazy Tennesseeans, with A side mx. C 1589 and B side mx. C 1590, both recorded 21 Oct 1936 in Chicago, IL).
They should be split. Entirely different recordings and artist credit. The explanation is in the Notes. Why they were re-recorded sounds not too dissimilar to the situation with Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" on Decca (metal parts just plain ol' wearing out).
