....The landscape of collecting would look so different if home playback equipment of the 1920s were just a few years more advanced. The destruction caused by Gramophones and Victrolas is heartbreaking, and even more heartbreaking is today's persistence of certain collectors to enjoy their 78s under the weight of a steel needle. To believe the ridiculous hype that a fresh needle will protect the integrity of a shellac groove is wild nonsense. A simple law of physics tells us that when two objects of unequal hardness come in contact with each other, wear will occur to the softer material. We are only custodians of this music, and we have an obligation to see that it isn't ruined for future generations. If one has a thoroughly worn V copy of a disc, I say, "enjoy your Gramophone!" ....but when I see UA-cam people playing rare E copy records on a wind-up, they should be hung by their toes. Hey guys, let's not be selfish -- think of future owners of your 78s. Yes, I fantasize that if only lightweight pickups had been invented in 1925, along with electrical recording, condition evaluations would be a non-issue. Can you imagine not having to explain or apologize for how a 78rpm record will play? Of course, I could take a cynical view that the recording industry who manufactured Gramophones was perfectly contented to see the disintegration of ephemeral shellac discs, only to have the customer coming back to purchase more. After all, they didn't seem to be in a big hurry to invent a gentler playback technology. And so, between steel needles, low sales during the Great Depression, and shellac reclamation during WW2, we have what is known as the "rare record." This video is a tribute to the creative genius of the Western Electric sound engineers. These records still sparkle with realistic sound after ninety years in a paper sleeve. It's interesting to follow the audio evolution in just the brief span of five years demonstrated in my post. They could never have imagined we would be hearing more than they were able to hear at the time of recording. The amplifiers in my graphics are excerpted from a page in a 1928 W.E. sales brochure. These are the amps used to record this music.
Until recently , a certain English uploader with the world's greatest Jack Payne collection insisted on playing them on antique machines . If you had adjoining seats on a transatlantic flight ......thank god for plastic cutlery !
@@williamwade641 ....whether it's a steel needle or a thorn needle, the problem is the weight that is being applied to the fragile shellac grooves. It's like you're asking me if it's OK if you smoke a little. I've seen store-stock (new) records that were played only once on a gramophone. Just one play is enough to do damage.
¡Ooohhh...! ¡Mi estilo favorito de música! ¡Bellas y románticas melodías! ¡Wonderful! ¡Beautiful! ¡¡Great, Prozoot!! ¡Greetings from Chile! 👍👍👍👌👌👌👏👏👏👏👏
More treasure...your comments are spot on...thanks for all your tremendous effort to allow today’s listeners to experience the sounds long gone but alive again due to your work and that of others that realize the vast musical treasury that the 1920s-30s provide.
THESE RECORDS ARE AWESOME! I LOVE the Open Horn phonographs! But unless the Record is wore out pretty good to begin with I will NOT Play a E- or even a V- 78 on One! I have heard that Cactus Thorne needles on a Orthophonic Sound box works very well! I have yet to try one of these! And if I do on a E record, It would be on a Junker or partly broken E+ Record to see how it holds up! Sadly the WONDERFUL Dime store ARC Records were played lots of times on cheep phonographs leading to a craggy rough sound! Usually at the start! But sometimes I get very lucky and find a AWESOME BANNER, Regal, Cameo or Romeo still in the sleeve! Very shiny or as shiny as a ARC PLAZA Record can be! Back to playing Records on old machines, THE WORSE YET! A AWESOME Record that some Jackass played with a Front facing sound box! OH! IT RUINS THESE RECORDS! I Have several I am desperately looking for to replace the ruined Record! I have seen folks playin a 78 on a Wind up with the tone arm against the Record, in other words the tone arm on the opposite side of where it is suppose to be! People have got to be taught the dos and NEVER do`s of Playing a 78 RPM Record! Especially folks who run antique stores who have a large stack of Victor, Brunswick Records in a EDISON Diamond Disc Player, Or Visa Versa! GEEEEEEZE!
I love playing this music while shaving and getting ready! Gives me pep in the morning! Out of curiosity, my grandmother has a bunch of 78s that have been sitting for a good 40 years. I was considering buying a record player from Walmart that plays 78s. Should those be okay and shouldn’t damage the records? I’m not concerned about ruining the needle. Those are readily replaceable. Her 78s aren’t. If you know any alternative please let me know! She’s 94 and would love to play them for her before she goes. She’s in good health but ya never know.
ANOTHER SONIC FARCE IS ROAMING AROUND A MACHINE WHEN IT'S BEING VIDEO'd. WITH THE LOCATION OF THE MIC & LENSE BEING FIXED TOGETHER, THE DIRECTIONAL RENDITION EMANATING FROM THE HORN IS CORRUPTED. THAT'S A POLITE WAY OF STATING IT.
I'm 77 And i look back at the well dressed with shinny shoes short hair cuts playing great musical like Trombones and clarinets and the likes as compared to TODAY mostly Guitars and drums with clown dressing and freakier the look with hair like a girl the more popular they are . WHAT IN HELL HAPPENED ?
Dear sir nothing happened the world changed and you didn't that's all I'm 84 years old and I love this music but I started loving this music when I was 15. And I enjoy some of the modern music and music of the seventies and eighties. I have to admit I tried my best to like rap and I really can't bring myself to like it but I say people who would do enjoy it should be able to enjoy it without criticism. But this old music is good isn't it? It's so long since you're posted this you probably won't even say it but I like to do it anyway take care
pThe picture shows RADIO STATION eqipment used to link a studio with a distant transmitter over "telephone clines". See lefthand caption. This "studio to transmitter equipment" can correct defects introduced by them so what happened in the studio will arrive at the transmitter. While there was not much "mixing" done in1920's there was careful studio set-ups of instuments before a mic
(Intersetimg sidelight about Columbia, in that both columbia & Victor recorded in 1926 the 150year aniversary of US the Associated Glee Clubs singing ADESTE FIDELIS recorded by the then new electric process. Victor did it first in Philedelphia,Columbia later in New Yorks Carnegie Hall. THE FAABULOIS PHONOGRH a 1950s history says that phone lines carried the live concert recording featured an adudience sing-along, the label claimed 4000 voices, was recorded by record making equipment in Conneticut fed by phone lines thus being an early REMOTE RECORDING. HOW DO THEY SOUND? The Victor was recorded without an audiece from an "an on-stage" perspective, while the Columbia had a distant perpective including audince, so not tricly comparable, but the Columbia is thinner at both bass and Treble probably due to phone line losses.
Do note that even as early as 1923 there were some network type radio programs. There is a Victor record of 1923/1924 at Library 0f Congress jukebox site in which they call our cities and call letters carring their program. NBC net dates to 1926 with continuois evening feed, CBS (originaly called THE COLUMBIA PHONOGRAPH NETWORK. Mutual was largely in place by 1929. Columbia 1926 Adestie Fidelis may have given them idea of radio network. (Victor different case, as bought up by RCA.

you're CLOWNING

I knew a Gramophone enthusiast who insisted on using thorn needles. I was wondering, are they still made and do they make a difference?

@Prozoot Point taken, I suspected as much.

There's something special about those two 1928 Fred Rich sides. I own that record and have been amazed for years .
I don’t know how you clean up these recordings- but you make me so happy to hear these as they should sound.My 78’s
Thank you so much!! This is very special!!

I used to use Bamboo Needles with good sucsess,Long Long ago......I know not if they may still be obtained.......if so,it is worthy of the try.
Is Prozoot your actual or a stage name?Love to listen to whatever you have.It’s an education and pleasure.
Great selection and beautiful quality as always, thanks so much for sharing

Almost 100 years old and still going strong! The past is right here, beautiful and as prescient as ever!
....molte grazie per le belle parole e il supporto.
❤❤❤❤❤Amazing ❤❤❤❤❤
cumulatively, we've lost something~ check the complexity of the horn section, the timing and the position, as if every last micro-second has meaning~
🙂THANKS A LOT😉WHAT A WONDERFUL MUSIC🌈🌞
isto e orquestra mesmo parabens lindos canais
Großartig , Dankeschön .
Excellent!
Plug-in = like using an electric typewriter~ just not so organic sounding.
Wonderful lineup of songs and bands.
Wonderful, thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing this enchanting recordings.
Great to see another awesome upload!
***** !
Super excellent
Yes you're right about those UA-cam guys playing choice records on wind-up gramophones. It's sacrilege, and always makes me sad.
Reproducing techniques were not up to standard with recording until at least 1953.
