Hey, Tom. Go to Document Records ( http://www.document-records.co.uk ). You will find the complete recordings (extant) of Gertrude Ma Rainey from '23 to '28. In Vol 3 1925 - 1926 You will find take 1 and take 3 of Mountain Jack Blues. Document Records is a tremendous resource of both recordings and lyrics. They deserve to be supported by the blues community for the work that they do in preserving and restoring some of the most obscure artists and recordings of the blues. They are, without question, one of the major publishers of blues lyric transcriptions whose copyrights are often infringed upon as was noted by Ari in a recent post Anyone who is unfamiliar with them should go there now. All for now.
