A classic.
Where did you ever ... ( 1 year ago by wheidelberg)
Where did you ever find all these recordings? They are really wonderful to hear, and sound amazingly good for their age and the primitive media. Have you thought of transferring any of these to CD? They should be preserved, in my opinion. Great record player as well. What brand is it and how old?
These are all just great!

Most of the things that I post are available as reissues on CD, although it takes a bit of searching. The machine is a Victor orthophonic (the Borgia II). Generally I don't play my records on this. Just for visual interest on Youtube.

I forgot, the phono is from 1926/27. I found most of my records in the '70's and '80's at estate sales, yard sales, library sales, flea markets, antique shops. Most were very cheap or free (I was given several major library collections of classical music). Nobody wanted them then.
