Radio Broadcast Recording (1928)

- Опубликовано: 9 сен 2020
- Here is another real radio broadcast from the 1920s. But please note that it is not a transcription. Rather, it was first made as a record, then broadcast over the radio. There's mostly just music, but there is some talking at the beginning. As before, this was recorded by Edison Labs in a series of successful experiments that would have been broadcasted later over the air. I will definitely post more (and more interesting) 1920s radio broadcasts in the future, so stay tuned!
The1920schannel: I’m a bit of a historian. I own several old radios from the 1930s and wondered what the original broadcast sounded like that came out of them. It’s rare to find any real radio broadcast before 1935. Thank you so much for posting these rare broadcasts.
I have a question what happen to radio broadcast from the 1920 to 1935
@@kevin-mz1vn it's been almost 100 years at this point, and things from that long ago generally haven't survived too well due to archiving that wasn't the best.
In addition, radio broadcasts were hardly kept to my understanding until at least the mid-late 30's. I don't really know why? I guess people at the time didn't think it was necessary for one reason or another. Perhaps the thinking was what you heard on the radio would always be around in the consumer environment for purchase or to listen to in a concert hall or a recorded disk. It's an interesting question, really, and I'd like to know myself!
@@kyleflounder9783 Well, the technology to record audio was still in its infancy back then, and imagine trying to record a whole day worth of radio transmissions back then, it would require a ton of Vinil discs and quite a storage area for all of them, and this just wasn't feasible for the radio stations from back then, which were still in their infancy and were barely profitable.
@@LoboalphaMASTER yes, you are quite right about the technology of the time. Except that there was no vinyl back then: records were made out of shellac.
@@kyleflounder9783 , you’re right about why they didn’t record much before the mid 1930s. It wasn’t that easy to do and they didn’t think it was necessary. Most broadcast were live and you never heard them again.
Now in answering the question why there is so much recorded after the mid 1930s : simple, World War Two. They recorded radio shows to ship overseas to the armed forces. They had radio stations overseas that would play radio shows that may of been recorded six months before, but still it was probably good for them to hear. I hope this answers some questions.
19:48 man I'd never expect to hear such a bouncy version of Sonny Boy.
I hope more of these are found. Thank you for posting this.
this is cool, i'm currently playing this over my transmitter to my 1927 radiola 17!
Absolutely great to hear this. Thank you for sharing
Omg so absolutely great! Love Baby Peggy!!
Baby Peggy died this year at 101. She was the last of the living silent movie star . All are gone now. Very few people remember them other than Chaplin.
These are 12" diameter, vertical cut "Rayediphonic" transcriptions. Recorded at 30RPM, and cut at 300 grooves to the inch.
These broadcasts are simply amazing and almost impossible to find period i am actually broadcasting them to several of my radios one of my favorites a Freed Eisenman FE15 with a Magnavox R3 speaker from 1924 been in the family since new
Amazing!!!
Love it!
How did you get a copy of this and is there source information on this? What details of the recording process is there and what method did Edison's engineers use? It's hard to make an assessment as to what was going on without that information. (my guess being that it was a larger version of Edison's Long Playing Diamond Disc recording apparatus and using more of the surface area of the 40-minuite variety, to get an additional 5 mins per side (25mins as opposed to 20mins per side) since Edison prided himself on not diminishing the frequency response potential of his vertically-cut recordings and that it sounds similar to an average long playing diamond disc issue of the time - and of course there being no slower speed horizontally-cut equivilent til the early 1930s via RCA Victor's transcription disc technology that could record & play anywhere near that length, let alone on early electrical set-ups)
I have subscribed to your channel (which, with a degree in Music History makes me appreciate this greatly!), however, am not sure how I will be notified of additional programs.
Click the bell.
Here is link to recordings of some actual radio broadcasts from 1932 (BBC). They were transcribed "off air" by my grandad using his own equipment at home in Edinburgh. I found the recordings on transcription disc in my parent's attic in 2016 and have recovered them digitally. ruclips.net/video/7rPDWOdAM5Y/видео.html
Yeah see, to the moon, why i oughta...
Does anyone know if these broadcast's are copyrighted? I'd like to use them for a film I'm working on but I am trying avoid any copyrighted material and I'm not sure how to find out the copyright laws on old sound such as this. Thanks!
I may be wrong on this but I believe that due to copyright laws of the time these may be part of the free domain
@@ElLangford you're correct
Any recording made before 1927 is in the Public Domain.
@@visaman Correct. Absolutely no issue there.
@@visaman Before Jan 01, 1928 at this point, though as the title of the video plainly says, this recording was made in 1928, so if the recording it's self isn't copyrighted due to either not renewing or not being copyrighted in the first place, some of the songs may be. That being said, they won't be in less than half a month. :P
That Model T do be acting wise
The true internet!
Did 1920s radio feature news broadcasts?
