Note

1. The first part (tracks 1-7) of the recording is an informal general conversation about New York and dance between Yeichi Nimura, Yumeji Tsukioka, Tsukioka's sister, and Lisan Kay. The second part (tracks 8-9) appears to be a separate later recording, and includes a recording of Tsukioka singing in English and Japanese accompanied by comments by Yeichi Nimura. The recording begins with Nimura stating that this is a recording made during the visit of Yumeji Tsukioka, a Japanese actress, and her sister to Nimura in New York on Oct. 15, 1951. However, the date on the original container of the original recording is Oct. 25, 1951.
