fixbutte 21st Jun 2024		It was the B-side, "Dying Mercy Blues", that was re-recorded by Tampa Red (see previous comment). This first version here is not credited to Tampa Red and Georgia Tom though (as it was entered here), but to Tampa Red "The Guitar Wizard" as well, see B-side label on https://www.wirz.de/music/tampared.htm. In contrast to the re-recording, which is a guitar solo instrumental, this one is actually a "Vocal with Piano and Guitar". Unlike on the A-side, which was recorded on a different session, the pianist is not Georgia Tom, but Romeo Nelson (though uncredited). B-side artist corrected accordingly and notes added.



Christian Belena1 8th Jul 2022		Re-recorded for Vocalion 1572 as A-side b/w "Broken Love." Label as Tampa Red "The Guitar Wizard" https://www.discogs.com/release/20524696-Tampa-Red-The-Guitar-Wizard-Dying-Mercy-Blues-Broken-Love-Amor-Roto http://www.78discography.com/VOC1500.htm Recording date as January 15, 1931.
