Note, for the future, that there's more metadata in the database for a 
recording than just the rows in the record table.  (This is why we 
recommend not editing the DB directly and using the provided 
user-interface to do stuff.)

I wouldn't worry about it, now.  Myth should eventually clean up the 
garbage for you, but even if it didn't, it's not /that/ big a deal.
