   Ranaldo, called "I Just Wanna See It" about the acetate disc Bob, Larry Kegan,   
   and Howie Rutman made in December, 1956 in Hibbing. I was surprised to not be   
   able to find an    
   online version of this 4-minute recording. It's not totally clear to me from   
   the section whether the Tulsa museum has the disc itself. Ranaldo writes,   
   "Finally, after tugging repeatedly on a few sleeves, I did get to see a images   
   of the actual disc," and    
   the section has what looks like a photo of it, but has the caption "Original   
   painting by Duncan Hannah of The Jokers acetate recorded at Terlinde Music   
   December 24, 1956." Ranaldo then writes, "I managed to hear it a bunch of   
   times as well, across many    
   weeks." But it's not clear if the museum has the acetate locked away and gave   
   him access to it, or if they played a digital version of it for him, or what.

   One thing I omitted from Ranaldo's section is that he says at first Larry   
   Kegan had the disc, but gave it to Louie Kemp, who kept it in a safe deposit   
   box for decades, then gave it back to Kegan just before Larry died. But   
   Ranaldo says nothing about how (   
   or if) it went from Kegan to the Tulsa museum. I posted this at Expecting   
   Rain, so maybe someone there knows more about it.
