Cute train song. I like it.

I’m his great grandsons friend

Thanks for posting this gem. The fellow in the photo is not Arthur Lennard. I think it must be Langhorn Burton from the 1920 silent film Little Dorrit. Arthur Lennard was also in that film as William Dorrit. Lennard wrote/performed a comic song ‘So Was I’ which has been recorded by the English folk group Magpie Lane.

When are you uploading more videos?

Probably the highest quality J.W myers recording i've heard so far, excellent tune this one is.

👍

The one from 1891 sung by him before this version has the oldest voice recording of the N word that i’ve heard.

A lot of the info is the same or similar to the information included with the CD on dan w quinn by archphone records.

Thanks!

Steve Porter was a bit of an anomaly. His solo singles like this one were a precursor to his later work as one-fifth of one of the greatest supergroups in history, the Heidelberg Quintet. Yet on their recordings, Professor Porter is almost invariably eclipsed sonically by colleagues William F. Hooley, John Bieling, Will Oakland and inevitably the legendary Billy Murray. Of course when you have five such strong soloists on the same project, someone has to play the fifth wheel. In that respect, he was the perfect fit. A true visionary.

Before the legendary Billy Murray established himself as the premier solo artist of the first quarter of the 20th century, artists like George W. Johnson, Len Spencer, Steve Porter and Dan W. Quinn set the standard and raised the bar for those to come. The recording industry was off to a fantastic start.

I prefer this version over the Ada Jones version. I can better understand the lyrics.

The more I 👂Edward,the more I like him😉

Welcome back! Some songs are so uplifting & agree, they make us happy to be collectors. I've been the same, one or two issues have paused my uploads, but hope to be back soon. Thanks for this delightful song!

Good 10" pre-dog. Welcome back. Hope that all is well.

Excellent 😀

😪 "promo sm"

I have always loved this song! I first heard it at the London Museum of Transport many years ago.

This is better than any song from the last 16 years

To be precise this wasn't borrowed from the British version "Come Come Caroline", but from the German song "Kom Karline" or Kom Karlinchen". Joop greets

I have this disc. It is a very early Murray and it is not common especially with Monarch label.

Very early recording of this popular tune.

Thanks very much

An excellent, warm & sensitive biography. Love the pictures & the songs. I think Kirkby's popularity came from not only his technical qualities as a singer (there are many good singers), but from his warm friendly & intimate style. I'm sure many families would gather round the gramophone, feeling that the record was made especially for them. He was raised in a part of the UK known for its warmth & good humour. As for 'canned music' the term is said to have been coined by Sousa, who not only disliked the sound of the phonograph on playback, he saw the resemblance of boxed cylinders to tin cans. Yes, his band did record (perhaps for commercial reasons), but its believed he never conducted them at recording sessions.

Do Billy Murray

I've only have heard Judy Garland sing this before now. I didn't even know this song was this old.

William Redmond was my great uncle! Born in 1875 in Brooklyn, NY but moved to Connecticut as a child. He sang in local churches in the Derby/Ansonia Connecticut. He married Margaret “Maggie” Menton and they later moved back to Brooklyn during his stage career where he sang with the White Rats in Prospect Park. He sadly passed at the young age of 41 to appendicitis in 1917 and left behind his wife and 5 children. The musical scene supported the family with many benefits during the sudden time. Maggie and children moved back with her family to Derby/Ansonia, Connecticut.

Nice video! Amazing his records still turn up today, hard to find anyone who recorded more records and indeed more record labels.

1903/1904 is pretty late to have a announcer isn't it?

Wow! A French G&T comic song. You sure have an eclectic record collection. Perhaps he was a French Harry Lauder or even a Cal Stewart? I haveEnglish,Austrian,Russian,Italian,Spanish G&T's but no French! LOL.

Nice Mercadier. I must have a disc or two of his somewhere in my collection.

Nice old VonTilzer tune.

Once again beautifully sung by our friend Ernest. You may have noticed him clear his throat in the early part of the intro. London wasn't the healthiest place to live back then & nearly everyone smoked, adding to the prevalence of respiratory problems.

Interesting how many poignant songs were written about Sally, which also exploit the rhyme with alley. Still in absolutely fine voice with his intimate style. here's the earliest Kirkby recording I have: ruclips.net/video/AtvUDMWx7kQ/видео.htmlsi=BRdpxS3RlPTn15d9

Very nice song which I am not familiar with.

Always wondered what this Gentleman looked like 🙂

Vintage Billy Murray & every bit as catchy as the British 'Down At The Old Bull And Bush'. Wonder how much they paid the trombone player who represented the German Band?

Does anyone know the specific year this is from?

Famous record! You have first edition Monarch.

Adieu Grenade (Jules Angot - Paul Henrion vers 1850-1900) R. Adieu ! Grenade la charmante Doux paradis, doux paradis du voyageur ! Je te quitte comme une amante… Adieu, je te laisse mon cœur ! Adieu ! Grenade la charmante Doux paradis, doux paradis du voyageur ! Je te quitte comme une amante… Adieu, adieu, je te laisse mon cœur ! Loin de tes murs, mon adorée Le sombre ennui va me saisir : Car jamais en nulle contrée Je ne perdrai le souvenir De ces bruyantes cavalcades Foulant le palais de tes rois Ni des joyeuses sérénades Qui m'ont fait rêver tant de fois ! Adieu, adieu Voici la nuit, ma souveraine Qui sur toi répand ses faveurs La brise, de sa douce haleine Porte au loin le parfum des fleurs Et sous la sombre jalousie Où je viens de me reposer Je vois un ange que j'ai choisie Me dire adieu dans un baiser Adieu, adieu... Merci. 😊

super rare

Now this is a true gem! Announced, well sung & both verses. Like the way he ups the tempo for the chorus. I posted an orchestral version of similar vintage, featuring a whistler who comes in early, realises his mistake, then whistles the chorus.

Wonder how songs were written with an umbrella featured as a courting accessory? Here's 'Come Under My New Gamp' by Billy Whitlock: ruclips.net/video/mkDtOY16UKo/видео.htmlsi=v8CbU2UnOf1oSRI3 Then of course there was 'Bus Stop' by 'The Hollies' which featured an umbrella.
