From WFMU, East Orange, NJ
"The audio curator at Edison National Historic Site rummages through the archives of the legendary Edison Laboratory of West Orange, New Jersey. Tune in for Edison cylinder and disc record rarities, many not heard since "the old man" himself stashed them away, featuring: Tin Pan Alley pop songs, ragtime, vaudeville comedy sketches, flapper dance bands, old-time country tunes, historic classical music, laboratory experiments and other artifacts - all dating from 1888 through 1929. "
Thank you very much. I’m glad they were able to save those recordings. I saw some wax cylinder recordings and the player for them when I was a child.
One of the things I have always loved about FR is the great links people post.
Found a site that digitizes cylinder recordings for listening. . .
