Once again I referred back to Larry's book. (I printed off the 48 page index years ago thank goodness) On page 577 there is clear dialogue on what Larry found which to me is undisputed.
I think some of the confusion may have came from Ray Baker. Ray insisted that ""I can't...." was the very last recording on Jim's last session. He stated his reputation on it. Larry states that it seems Ray was only half right. It is true that this song was the last one recorded in the AFTERNOON session. However Ray Baker had no recollection of an EVENING session (he was not present) so there in lies the corrected version. "Maureen" was the last song for the evening recording. And therefor Jim's last studio recording in his life time.
The Master/ Matrix number also establishes the sequence of songs done that day on July 2nd. 1964.s According to Larry and the Matrix list establishes that "Maureen" was Jim's very last studio recording.
If I am in error, please post a reply, I simply want the record to be correct as we all do. But this what I found.
