I have uploaded a digital transfer of this record on my channel for posterity. Please feel free to check it out! The link is in the description.
Very nice! Thanks for sharing.
I did enjoy and thank you very much
Glenn Johnson This is just pure nostalgia and i love the 78 rpm record and gramophones and the music from that era when my Grandfather was alive.As a kid he had many records just like these.Thank you so much.It gives me so much pleasure
This is incredibly beautiful, thanks for uploading this!!! 👏👏
That record should be digitized for further prevesation.
it kinda is
Not a proper digitization, though. A proper record transfer is a direct line transfer with your turntable hooked up directly to your computer.
thats also what i sort of nodded more over to.
I just recently got a record player which I can hook up to my computer so I will be uploading the digitized version soon!
That label design, with the broken lines may have been an early strobe disc to help set the speed, which should be about 80 rpm, for Columbia records
Somewhere in my hoard of 78s I have Climax no. 80 ('Barber of Seville' Overture, black & gold label, also by the Climax Band) and Columbia no. 133 ('The Man Behind the Gun' March, unidentified band), but there is something special in the very first disc record made by this once great company. Thank you for making it available!
Back at the turn of the century did they have vacuum tubes electronic equipment for the recording studio
What a wonderful find! The quality of these early Columbia/Climax recordings is amazing, especially since they manage to get a good sized orchestra in there, when, for other companies, vocal with piano accompaniment, was more usual. A while back I uploaded a 'Climax' 'The Wedding Of The Rueben And The Maid' by Harry MacDonnough, which again, has good sized orchestral accompaniment.
Those early disc records are great!
"In the clock store" is one of the songs used in Macy's (formerly Wanamaker's) Christmas Light Show in Center City Philadelphia.
I have this song on an Edison Diamond Disc
RyRy Almighty what number? I Love DD's! Have well over 200, but as you know if you have many, they often loose their labels!
@@davidlogansr8007 The number etched into the disc is 4982-A-10-30
THAT IS SO FUCKING RARE!!!THANK YOU FOR YOUR SHARING!!
fantastique document!!!!!
I have lots of Edison recordings, including Mr. Edison "Let us not Forget"; Ted Roosevelt; President McKinley on brown wax, and stacks of brown wax cylinders;; President Woodrow Wilson; Florence Nightingale; Berliner discs; Zonophone 7" discs, etc.. No idea what 2 do with them.
Thoughts?
I collect early discs...am always interested in buying same. Feel free to contact me at craigventresco@gmail.com . Thanks!
Are these for sale still?
Are these records still for sale
absolutly true is the first Columbia disc
Way cool. Have a much later Victor recording of this.
That’s fantastic what a record thanks so much for sharing this 👍🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺❤️
Was Here...
Nice!
I can remember having to change the needle every 12 plays!!! A pain in the ass
for a 5 or 7 year old kid!!! Needles came in packs of 25! Mid 1950s. I also had
a state of the art RCA 45 RPM phonograph! Vinyl so sucks!!!
I've never seen a video of this record, I was aware of it's existence though. You had it running way too fast.
Sounds fast. I suspect it should be running closer to 68 to 72 rpm.
please tell me if this is a one-sided record? thanks for the sharing.
It is single sided. Practically all records were single sided until Columbia devised the "Double Disc" record in 1908.
You should've recorded electrically, but nice video btw
You really shouldn't ever play rare recordings on machines like that, fun though it is.
IS THAT COLUMBIA 'PHONOGRAPH' OF THE SAME VINTAGE OF THE DISK? YES, IT'S CHARMING TO SEE AND HEAR THE ORIGINAL DISK BEING PLAYED ON IT. I'M NOT A 'COLLECTOR' OF PHONOGAPHS. BUT I STRONGLY SUSPECT THAT THIS IS AN EARLIER VINTAGE MACHINE. SHOULD IT NOT HAVE AN EXTERNAL HORN TO BE HISTORICALLY CORRECT? THE CRITIQUE IS UTTERLY CORRECT ABOUT NOT PLAYING ESPECIALLY RARE SHELLAC DISKS ON PRIMITIVE PHONOGRAPHS SUCH AS THIS. WITH EXCEPTIONS, THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE PLAYBACK SYSTEM WAS TO WEAR (NOT MALICIOUSLY) THE PLAYING SURFACES. ONE SUCH EXCEPTION WAS COLUMBIA'S MARCONI-VELVETONE FLEXIBLE DISK (1906). THEY HAD SUBSTANTIALLY LESS NOISE. THEIR PATENT FOR IT PRESAGED THEIR EXQUISITELY LOW NOISE LAMINATED DISKS 20+ YEARS LATER. FOR VARIOUS REASONS, IT WAS A COMMERCIAL FAILURE. TO APPRECIATE THE BRUTE FORCE OF WHAT YOU SEE BEING USED IN THIS DEMONSTRATION, PLACE YOUR OPENED HAND (FACE UP) WHERE THE NEEDLE (CACTUS OR STEEL) SHOULD BE LOWERED ONTO THE DISK. THEN LET THAT NEEDLE HIT (IN OUNCES) YOUR FLESH. AFTER DAUBING YOUR BLOOD AND TREATING THE WOUND, DO A COMPARABLE PROCEDURE WITH A
CONTEMPORARY CARTRIDGE. DO IT MULTIPLE TIMES WITH VARIOUS SIZES AND SHAPES OF DIAMOND STYLI,
WITH FORCES MEASURED IN A FEW GRAMS. MAKE ELECTRONIC ADJUSTMENTS TO ACCOUNT FOR HOW MUCH OF THAT GROOVE IS TRULY LATERAL OR SOME OTHER VECTOR. WHICH WOULD YOU PREFER TO REPEATEDLY DO TO YOUR SHELLACS? ALSO, USING A MICROPHONE TO REPRODUCE THE SOUND OF AN ACOUSTICAL SYSTEM NECESSARILY ADDS THE ACOUSTICS OF THE ROOM (WHICH INCLUDE NOISES MADE BY THE CHARMING OLD MACHINES) TO YOUR PLAYBACK. BECAUSE ANY NEW DIGITAL MASTERS MIGHT EVENTUALLY ENABLE RESULTS EVEN BETTER RESULTS THAT WE CAN NOT NOW HOPE FOR, SUCH TRANSFERS MUST NOT BE DONE WITH ANY FILTERING, NOISE SUPPRESSION, ETC. IMAGINE IF THE METAL THAT WAS USED TO PRESS THIS DISK SURVIVED INTACT AND WAS USED TO BYPASS ALL OF THE INTERVENING PRIMITIVE EQUIPMENT. THEN YOU WOULD BE UTTERLY ASTONISHED BY THE FIDELITY OF WHAT THEY WERE RECORDING, WITHOUT ELECTRONICS, 117 YEARS AGO. YET ANOTHER SOURCE OF PLAYBACK SANS NEEDLES AND OR STYLI MIGHT
BE THE NORTH KOREAN AND OTHER BRAINTRUSTS' INCREDIBLE EXPERTISE WITH DIGITAL (I.E. FACIAL
RECOGNITION) TECHNOLOGY. THEY, PUTIN AND TRUMP COULD DEMAND RESIDUALS FOR THESE AUDIO
RESURECTIONS. AND NOW, LET'S THINK ABOUT MAGNETIC AND OPTICAL RECORDINGS...
