Moran
& Mack:
Two Black
Crows (1927-1930)
All recordings were made in New York by George Moran (1881-1949)
and Charles Mack (1888-1934) unless noted otherwise. Columbia
issued alternate takes, and many variations of a single title
may exist. This is especially notable on alternate takes of Parts
3 and 4, some of which have entirely different background music
and vary widely in their playing times. An underline indicates
an issued take. An asterisk (*) indicates a take that is shown
in error as unissued in Brooks & Rust's Columbia Matrix Book Discography, but that has been verified as commercially issued.
