[Dixielandjazz] I need a Bessie Smith record label

[Anton Crouch]

Hello Dick

Dan Mahony, in his 1966 Columbia 13/14000-D numerical listing, gives

I GOT WHAT IT TAKES
(But It Breaks My Heart To Give It Away)
(Jenkins and Williams)

Mahony's primary source was the Columbia Label Copy Notices.

Brian Rust, in his 1999 Columbia Master Book Discography, Volume III, gives

I Got What It Takes
(But It Breaks My Heart To Give It Away)
(Jenkins-Williams)

Rust's primary source was microfilm of the "Columbia files". The work 
shows all title words as u/c - l/c.

Until a copy of the label turns-up, I'd go with Mahony.

All the best,
Anton
