Dear John:
We are prepared to send you discs and needles for your recording work around Nashville. But first, I wish you would send your earlier records to us here at the Library, so that we can copy them and at the same time determine whether the recording machine needs repairing, before you begin using up nice clean Acetate.
I shall write to Dr. Jones this morning about the matter of the overhauling of the machine and use of the car.
Cordially yours,
Alan Lomax
