Nice gramophone

Lovely

Thanks so much for uploading, my dad used to roll around laughing after playing this song brings back so many memories. A classic

Lebert Lombardo sang When my Dreamboat comes home

Excellent!!! These are lyrically sweet tunes, musically rendered without clichés. I had never before heard the second melodic strain of the 1919 standard "Alice Blue Gown ; " it has always been omitted on the many recordings I have heard of it. Thank you!!! My one gentle suggestion for improvement would be this: Going forward, do you think you could experiment with your sound capturing / engineering / frequency equalization, somewhat? I am noticing that there ought to be much better balancing between high and low. I am hearing very little of the lower end of the spectrum. As a result, this upload sounds rather ''tinny," which is unfortunate. While I have very much enjoyed all of your postings that I have heard in terms of repertoire, this same sound quality issue has been consistent. If you can rectify this, it will make the sound much better. I have discovered from years of listening to old records that they are capable of giving forth with very rich sound, and I am willing to believe that to be true in this instance as well. I hasten to assure you that I am not discouraged, and neither should you be, on account of anything I have said. It was NOT meant in that way. I shall maintain my subscription and check back for more offerings. Warmly yours, Richard Laine.

Info: Circa 1906, Arthur James O'Neill in Chicago, IL, launched the Busy Bee Amberized Disc Records and phonographs. The discs were pressed from products of American Record Company (H&S), Columbia, Leeds, and Zonophone. Busy Bee pressings were made as late as 1909, making Busy Bee rather short-lived. This was an early scam that relied on the fact that the machine could be sold for cheaper, but the machine had a lug that prevented regular records from laying flat on the platter, meaning that special Busy Bee discs had to be purchased at a premium, which had a rectangular hole below the foot of the label. As for the second round hole on your specimen, I don't know, and it's not supposed to be present. "1338" is the number on your disc, and the announcer at the intro of the record sounds like that of other examples of American Records (the Hawthorne, Sheble, and Prescott product) I have heard online.

My father had this record when I was just a little child--I remember that "Mother Goose Polka!"

The tunes are good and better than Wayne King usually got to play on Victor. Nat Shilkret and George Olsen usually got to record the better stuff.

I wish this recording were played on an Orthophonic Victrola to maximize the Orthophonic recording. The recording itself is excellent.

It sounds like your needle is worn. You are supposed to change the needle after each record.

I like this recording although the later one is technically more advanced in aural quality. The Heifetz tone is unmistakable in both.

Show 🇧🇷🇧🇷

#DA Dog and a Trum🐇

Two masterpieces.

Display what!

Бетство!

Good old Bob ! I have few of his Cameo label records 😊

How nice 😊

These two sides had excellent fidelity and the orchestra was first rate.

I have a completely different version of "Lay My Head Beneath A Rose" by Irving Kaufman on Columbia, same exact time of recording.

Playback sounds a bit slow. Needs a few more RPMs.

This record is "Yasugi-bushi" (安来節) by Izumo Ainosuke (出雲愛之助). Yasugi-bushi has thousands of verses, and I could only find the first line for Side 1: 花は桜木　あの人は武士　 (The blossoms are cherry blossoms; that man is a samurai...) Side 2 鹿の声　聞くが辛さに (Listening to the calls of the deer brings a bitter sorrow,) 浜辺に住めば　千鳥鳴く　島のほとりに (living by the seashore, where plovers cry along the island's edge,) あの侘び住まい　二人が仲に　吹く松風は (in my humble dwelling, the wind blows from the pine forest that lies between us;) またもや差し込む　二十三夜の窓の月 (through the window on the twenty-third night, the moonlight spills.) 晴れて嬉しや　新所帯 (I long for a bright and happy new life with you.)

Beautifull🙂

kinda weird--experimental? Avant Garde? When did it come out, do you have a date on the record?

Great video and great songs (no wonder, Helen Forrest is a lovely singer), but I feel like you're spinning the record a little too fast

A very sweet tune from probably a 100 years ago

That’s the old Victrola before it was RCA

Absolutely beautiful playing from almost a Hundred years ago

Do you know who "Elsie-Jean" is? I've been trying to figure that out.

Thank you for the recordings of the legendary Paul Whiteman Orchestra. Always refreshing to listen to.

Lovely! I absolutely adore the music of this era

Helen Forrest and Harry James.Simply the best! What wonderful sound!

Thank you for sharing!

The headline calling Pons a contralto is too, too funny; Like calling Boris Christoff a tenor. Get your act together, poster.
