    I ended up here, after hearing Constance Bennett mention it in the 1935 film I happen to be watching called "After Office Hours" here in my living room in Trenton NJ USA. August 2022

    I remember Harpo talking about this song in his autobiography as I believe he substituted for his brother Chico but was exposed because that was the only song he knew how to play! I've always wondered what the song sounded like and thank you for this!

    Thank you Ragtime, glad you enjoyed it. I have a definite preference for these early classics from the golden age of recorded sound. Just great stuff with clever and entertaining music and lyrics. If you have any suggestions as what you would like to hear, let me know, as I may have the record in inventory.

    If you have "Huckleberry Pie"
    A duet by Jones and Murray
    That would be great.
    I heard this record once before and have never bin able to find a copy of it.
    It has bin one of the more elusive records in my search.
    If you have a copy of it I would love to hear it.
    Thanks : )

    @joshuamyler its an early type of plastic called shelac but they were pressed with ground up slate to wear the needle down and help it fit the groove better, thats why these needles should be used ONCE only
    and like pongboy1100 said they will crack or chip easily if knocked and if dropped it will just shatter, or in my case when my dad sits on them

    @joshuamyler they were from stuff (back here in the Nederlands it is called bakeliet) it's stuff that's like stone.
    If you let one drop from a meter it's done for. So be carfull if you have one!

And in one panel to highlight the difficulty doing this,her head is spinning around a record. The label on the record shows the title "Waltz me around again Willie" I don't know why.
