- George J. Gaskin (1863-1920) is an Irish Tenor who was one of the first vocalists to make a recording with Edison Records. This is a recording of him singing "After The Ball" in 1893.
There is something about late 19th early 20th century music that gets to me.
It's got a very pleasant sound. I wish I could have heard it live, especially since music editing was basically non-existent, and the artist had to have enough talent to sing well without technology helping
What about me?
@@billymurray705 ofc you are one of the most popular singers of this time
though you may be confused with another person with your name
I love it. It reminds me of my childhood before I time tra- I’ve said to much…
@@billymurray705 i love your music! I mean, come Josephine in my flying machine? Absolute banger. Same with goodbye boys and in my merry Oldsmobile. Some of my favorites.
Massive, massive hit in its day. Gaskin continued to be cited as an influence by many of the artists who followed him throughout the next few decades. This is one of the cleanest pressings I've ever heard of this track. Minimal surface noise!
This recording was not pressed, that is reserved for disk recordings, this is taken from a brown wax cylinder which was either copied from a master recording by use of interconnected hollow tubes or was dubbed using a pantographic device. In 1893 the tube arrangement would have been used for making copies, pantograph copies came out sometime around 1895. Copies dubbed from masters (of which a limited number could be made from each one requiring recording "by the round" to produce enough masters to supply the market), increased in quality and volume through the 1890's until commercially molded cylinders came out in 1902.
He was my main influence
How do you know this
Wonderful, and incredibly bizarre, being able to hear a representative of a Society that no
longer exists... a true voice from the distant past... how different things were back then.
And it bends the mind even further if you comprehend that Queen Victoria was on the throne
at the time and WWI was 20 years away, and yet it would be 30 years before commercial
cine flicks moved from mute, to 'Talkies'. Talk about hearing the dead speak, its a one-way
seance!
As for this, we now have all the technology needed to make this 'come to life', as though it
were recorded nowadays. The speed could be rectified, the subtle variations ironed out,
the wow-and-flutter corrected and the surface noise removed with compression, filters and
attenuators, The voice and instruments could be fully enhanced by layer-cake dubbing so
as to both raise and broaden the frequency response through graphic manipulation that'd
add to the flat 'black & white' tone of the original recording, and stereo could be introduced.
Yes, it could be done and would take a lot of time and effort but then, perhaps it would lose
a substantial part of its charm and identity in the process, - but I'd still like to hear both
versions all the same if it were possible.
Thank you for the upload.

Beautiful accurate description
beautiful.
The first million seller among American songs.
The little accent singers and performers had back then is so cute and haunting. I don’t know if it’s similar to the Transatlantic accent (I think that came later), but you can sometimes hear it in some of the those old PSA’s and films from the 1920s, 30s, and 40s - mainly from the older actors who would’ve been teenagers in the 1890s. They roll their r’s and exaggerate the vowels and it’s so strange to hear today.
This guy was Irish and you can kind of still hear it. Especially on the "R"s.
This song turns 130 years old! It sounds great for a song in 1893.
This version must be the very first recording of this great song!
This is essentially Nu Metal of the 19th century. Lyrically depressive, poetic, with a lot of white noise to aid the discordance of such an edgy subject matter of one's inner turmoil.
I fully understand that, with the very concept of recording audio being a very new thing - making *any* sound quality classify as AmaZinG - I still can’t help but compare this quality to that of a music box that one’s Great Aunt had gifted to them as soon as they were born, and they’ve kept it all these years, but now it’s all worn out, and doesn’t sound the way it used to when they were 5…
Simply amazing that we can hear this today.
I love old music!
Me to
Me to
me too
Same with me this is my favorite I like Turky in the straw as well
only 90s kids would understand this.
The Mad MGTOW Jack Marston 👍🏻
I was born in 1880... not really :(
This is the original grunge era.
literally
@@victorianghost16 basically you're a 90s kids, you can't be borned in 1897 and call yourself a 90s kids because you were born but not grew up in that time
Only 1890s kids will remember
Omg this is actually lit, why did it take so long for me to find this :0
i only found this because it was used in a Mr. Incredible format, and i am so glad i did.
Because you use terms like „lit“
Yuuup
Wow! This is incredible!
Yeah it is When Mr Incredible Becomes Old Too..
@@ClassicalMusicMan Mr Incredible with big beard
@@ClassicalMusicMan =_=
I love how this comment aged
This is actually a great song. Quality was great for 1893.
he was a true gentleman.
I love 1890s songs it’s a weird trait of mine. It may be because I love history. After the ball is my favorite.
This message was the edit. Only 3 months no comments and no likes idk why
because these videos don't get a ton of comments or views, it's actually pretty nice
@@dguy0386 now it’s been a year or somthing your the only commenter
Now you got two
1893 Man 109 years later I was born 😮😮
I am surprised that Mr Incredible revived old music like this, first She was bred in old Kentucky, then The old Turkey in the Straw recording, and now After the ball! I love Gaskin’s music and it’s rather amazing that it’s been revived as a meme.
I think the same I love 1890 music and it’s a very strange trait of mine
I also like history
I love 90's music!
Beautiful piece. I love it. Thanks for uploading it!
I don’t care what dad thinks I’m gonna listen to this with my grandparents!
Spend time with your grandparents whilst you can, it will be taken for granted if not. I’ve lost my grandfather and I’m happy to hear you doing this.
that old phonograph voice makes it better
You've got to love that static from the decades of wear on the cylinder. I'm surprised there have been very few mentions of Mr. Incredible.
It’s only in very few extended versions so
I was 30 back then... old times
Congrats on 159 years of life!
1863
You're the oldest person in the world
Well, that was the year George J Gashin was born.
Lucky! I was only 11. Wonderful time though. I regret getting in that time ma- let’s not talk about that…
So amazing to hear this in 2021😱
Any more amazing to hear it in 2022?
*2022*
Well now 2023
2024 also
1893 as well
Love those spoken intros!
Me too
Imagine if George J Gaskin time traveled to 2022
He'll notice his song in a meme.
I hope he’s happy for his song to be revived by a popular meme
Fantastic, do you have a number on this Edison recording
this is just wonderful not gonna lie my great great gtreat grandfather listened to this
nice! my great great great grandfather owned slaves 👍
@@dguy0386 my Great great grandfather was a one year old who still lived in Germany at the time.
Joseph A Siemer adapted the song in 1894 to After the Strike. Seeing scab coal being transported through his town during the 1894 Coal Mine Strike, he rewrote it about a scab coal miner who became a scab and regretted it years later. It was the anthem for revolution, sparking Ohio’s Sunday Creek Insurgency.

Finally, somebody mentions that.
Finally found it
Is this a North American Phono Co. recording? or one made by one of the North American "local" Companies.
This song makes me feel like I’m a grandpa.
SALUDOS GEORGE J GASKIN

These weren't even 78 rpm phonograph records played on a gramophone, these were cylinders played on this really strange looking contraption. Google cylinder recordings 1890s and you'll see one playing in real time....

Billy Murray was recording as early as the 1890s, however those recordings have been lost in time
Hi
@@JS-jn1kr yes, I was talking when Billy Murray became very famous and the most selling in early 20th century. For some reason I forgot that Murray recorded in 1897, thank you for tell me
