Step back in time, to a simpler age,
Where music was pressed on a shellac page.
Join us now, as we lift the veil,
On the treasures of the 78 era's tale.
Each crackle and pop, a memory preserved,
A moment in time, forever immersed.
So sit back, relax, and let the past unfold,
As we spin tales, both new and old.
Where music was pressed on a shellac page.

As we spin tales, both new and old.

It's A Grand Old Song Is "Home Sweet Home". Billy Williams.
Awesome
I agree with you. This is one of those recordings which really seems to recreate ' a moment in time' and 'all that went with it'. Very special indeed. Thank you very much for your comment.
I love a band with a marimba and steel guitar
It is a very nice, 'dreamy / drifting' sound I think. I could almost imagine being in an expensive hotel 'way back when'. I am really glad you like it too. Thank you very much for your comment.
I enjoy this Shanty, been listening to it all day.
That made me smile. I am really pleased that you like it. I will have another listen now too ! Thank you very much for your comment.
@ You are Welcome, Anytime.
I KNOW THIS TUNE I WAS A BALLROOM DANCER I LEARNED HOW TO DANCE ENGLISH OLDE TIME DANCING I DANCED THE MILITAIRE I GOT A BRONZE MEDAL IN 1991 MY TEACHER WAS ANTHONY PEPERS LIVES IN SYDNEY AUSTRALIA
That is really good to know ! In all sincerity, I wish I was in the audience to see you at the time. Very interesting indeed and thank you very much for your comment.
Dutch Daly was my grandmother's cousin 👍
Very interesting indeed. I appreciate you taking time to mention this. I am always interested in learning about the history of the 78 record performers. Thank you once again.
Not a Berliner, much later (and that matrix was issued as G&T G.C.-3588) Probably a test disc. Recorded on 30th November 1904 at London. (From Gramophone ledgers) Female voice is Elizabeth PARKINA Title: I know a lovely garden (d’Hardelot) Matrix number: 6292 b
Thank you VERY much for your exremely helpful and informative comments. Very interesting indeed.
The 78rpm equivalent to a personal cassette recording of a loved one's performance!! Very cool, thank you for preserving and sharing this gem with us all!! 😎👍👍
Thank you so very much for your comment. Perhaps it was just a 'home recording' kind of thing. As you say though, it is very worthy of preservation from 'way back when'. Really pleased that you appreciate this, as I do.
The most pleasant way to find out what this is is to watch "A Night at the Opera" (1935).
Thank you very much for your help. I have just looked on the internet and see that this is a Marx Brothers film. I may very well have a DVD copy of that so will have a look ! Thank you ! Oh, it's La Trouvere !!!!
Well, you're pretty much there, but watch the movie again and enjoy yourself!
4:05 The Lass o' Killiecrankie (b/w Trip To Inverary), was recorded by Harry Lauder in 1906, and released on the Zonophone Record (The Twin) label, Serial 604, in 1911. Two or more takes of a song may have been made, and the best one or ones chosen for release, hence 'good' scratched onto them. I've seen images of U.S. Paramount label test pressings, with different takes of songs on either side, marked 'good' and 'bad' respectively.
Very interesting indeed ! I have just played the single sided record and you seem to be absolutely correct. I will upload that one to youtube next. Great information about the US Paramount records you have seen and the possibility that these are test pressing. Thank you very much for your comment !
j'ai chanté par Emma Liébel
Très intéressant. Je ne connaissais pas Emma Liébel. J'ai maintenant lu des informations sur elle et entendu le disque "A kiss in tne dark" "le baiser dans la nuit" 1924 sur youtube. C'est le même morceau. Emma Liébel est une personne très intéressante aussi. Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire.
Hii
Recorded on March 14, 1928. Vocal Chorus by Harold "Scrappy" Lambert {as "Rodman Lewis"}. Originally released on {American} Banner 6255, Domino 4120, and Regal 8521.
Very interesting information indeed. Thank you very much for adding this.
You're *very* welcome!
One of the superb tenor sax men well respected he played with all the greats appreciated and honored
Very interesting indeed. Thank you very much for your comment.
Video looks low res, but I see its in 1080P HD... nice effect, pairs well with the mellow sound of the song! Many thanks for sharing this! Merry Christmas and Happy Yule! 🎅👍👍🎄🎁
Hi there ! Well, to be honest we have just had 'the shortest day of the year' over here and light levels are quite low, so the 'effect' just created itself. I agree with you though, I quite like it as well. Thank you so much for your comment and a Happy Christmas and New Year to you too !
Hadn't heard of this band 😎
I haven't either. I really like the 'reverse side as well' - 'funny that way' is one of my very favourite songs. Thank you very much for your comment. Interesting.
Probably the rarest record I will hear for awhile 😎
Very interesting. Thank you very much for saying.
L
Really pleased that you like this record. Thank you again.
Sounds like real church music
I agree with you. Also, using imagination I could almost believe I am present at the service all those years ago. Thank you very much for your comment.
The lyrics on this one are nothing short of comedic poetry. "I've got inside information - " Bwahahahahahahahahaaaa!!!
It is certainly an interesting record and, as you say, it is very entertaining. Thanks for taking the time to comment, really appreciated.
@@thegramophoneroom Most welcome! Thank you for posting the videos!
First!! Thank you for posting what is not only beautiful music, but also a beautiful record of the past [pun not necessarily intended!] -
Thank you very much for commenting. I am really pleased that you like this record.
Gus Van & Joe Schenck {he's playing piano}. Recorded on July 13, 1928. Originally released on {American} Columbia 1492-D.
Very interesting information. Thank you.
You're welcome! Van & Schenck were well-known vaudeville performers at the time. After Joe's death in 1930 {heart disease}, Gus continued as a performer in his own right.
Google says 1932... Very nice recording, many thanks for sharing this remarkable song with us!! 😎👍👍
Thank you very much for your comment. I am really pleased that you like this - great to know the year as well !
Love this !
Really glad that you like it and I agree with you. Thank you very much for saying.
Funny how Al Bowlly was never mentioned on the record.
Don’t think I’ve heard this one by Harry James before 👏👏👏
I don't really know this either. A very nice tune I think. Thank you very much for your comment.
I used to hum this when I worked in the jail…
Very interesting memories you must have there. Thank you very much for saying.
Very cool recordings, thanks for sharing with us!! 😎👍👍
I am really pleased that you liked this record. Thank you very much for your comment.
I am fan of the Meltrope III soundboxes - they really perform well. I have a few EMG soundboxes which sound good, but still not as good as my two Meltrope IIIs.
I agree with you entirely. There are one or two other sound-boxes which I would also rate above the EMG including the Lenthall. I have three different versions of this sound-box. According to 'EMG Colonel' they were made in three different versions - which were 'treble' 'mid-range' and 'bass' sound-boxes. So one is more suitable for opera records, another for spoken word etc. They are nice to look at as well ! Thank you very much for your comment.
🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼
Pretty indeed
I agree with you. Thank you very much for saying.
It's a good version of the song. I would like to hear a remastered version of the record. My favorite is The Victor Salon Orchestra version or Earl Burtnett's version.
Thank you very much for your comment. I will search for the versions you mention on-line.
You have any home recordings?
I am unsure as the 78 records are all mixed up and strewn around.
@@thegramophoneroom alright
I got some oldies
Are they 78 records ?
@@thegramophoneroom oh yeah
@@thegramophoneroom some of them look brand new
For sure a 78
I like this what size is this disc?
Me too ! It is about five and three eighths of an inch at the widest point. (I just measured it !). Thank you very much for your comment.
@@thegramophoneroom oh ok I have a 8 inch German orchestrola disc that has jazz songs on them
@@newambassador376 Very interesting. I haven't heard of the ''Orchestrola' label before.
@@thegramophoneroom ruclips.net/video/SkwR4Buhhlc/видео.htmlsi=x5J8jCEBebggiKuk
How interesting, thanks for sharing. Denise Orme had been in the original production of The Little Michus in 1905-6. Bizarrely, she is also the grandmother of the current Aga Khan.
Very interesting information indeed. Thank you very much.
Very nice
I am glad that you like it. It is a very pleasant song. Thank you very much for taking the time to say so.
My dad used to sing this song, it was his party piece.
That sounds like a wonderful memory. I really do like this song incidentally. Thank you very much for your comment.
Very nice
I am glad that you like this one. It is one of my favourite records as well. Thank you very much for your comment.
@@thegramophoneroom thank you. Welcome
Are you here to make noises thank you 😊
Very nice! THANKS!!!
I am very pleased that you like it and thank you very much for your comment.
Please let's have more early jazz.
Thank you for your comment ! I do have some more jazz records to upload but most of my collection consists of other genres.
One of the few sad songs Billy Williams recorded. Same recording also issued on the 'Cinch' label, a budget Gramophone Company subsidiary belatedly launched in 1913 to push back cheap German imports. Their price made them sell well, but they were soon discontinued as WW1 halted such imports anyway. Nice collection of soundboxes you have. Is the octagonal one a Fletcher? I have one as an adapter to enable my Edison disc player to reproduce conventional records.
Great information ! Thank you for what you say - I think that the Octagonal one you refer to is called 'Common Wealth'. Quite a nice sound to it. I haven't heard of a 'Fletcher' Soundbox before. Interesting.
@@thegramophoneroom Here's a Commonwealth gramophone, though not sporting an octagonal soundbox: ruclips.net/video/ZZHTz-wiIac/видео.htmlsi=I-1QgAUZdgoQzVpm They did make many models, guessing this small portable would be an entry level model. My Fletcher soundbox has a baffle plate behind the diaphragm, with six tiny concentric holes. Surprisingly, this doesn't reduce the volume & its sound is excellent. Correction: It's hexagonal, not octagonal
Billy Williams recorded several versions for different labels. It appeared he did this for each new song, presumably to prevent cover versions. This version makes things clearer, re the policeman & the smoking issue: ruclips.net/video/114BfwsGS5M/видео.htmlsi=OH1OExmse0KjqjJe 'Willie had been smoking, against the latest act' alludes to the 1908 Children's Act' which barred under 16's from smoking. How many coppers back then would enjoy free smokes from such confiscations? Thanks for posting, not heard this version before.
Thanks very much for the very interesting information. Billy Williams is one of my very favourite performers.
@@thegramophoneroom I like him too & have posted several of his records. A highly prolific recorder in his sadly short life 1877-1915. There's a short Wikipedia article on him giving some bio info.
Featured in the last episode of "The Prisoner".
I didn't know that. Very interesting indeed. Thank you.
This and the flip side, "Bucktown Stomp," were recorded July 16, 1928 with Natty Dominique (cornet), Johnny Dodds (clarinet), Honoré Dutray (trombone), Charlie Alexander (piano), Bill Johnson (bass) and Johnny's brother Warren "Baby" Dodds (drums and washboard). I notice this British 78 reissue is dated 1951, well after both Johnny and Baby Dodds had died. Nice record, and surprisingly well recorded for the time.
1928 😊
1906 😊
Thank you very much for the record date. Very much appreciated.
1928 😊
Now, thats a long time ago !
