Various Artists - The Phonograph Entertains; Popular Recordings 1903-1924 Peakland PL-5001
Before the advent of radio and television, the phonograph brought popular entertainment into the homes of families across the country. With the aid of heavy, fragile shellac records, the "talking machine" miraculously summoned top musicians, actors, and vaudeville stars to perform on demand. The Phonograph Entertains presents a virtual phonograph variety show, with dance numbers, vaudeville sketches, popular vocalists, military bands, and novelty selections -- all taken from excellent copies of the original 78 rpm recordings, carefully transferred and restored for best sound quality. It's a treasure trove of rare and historic recordings, most never before released on CD. Step back in time and enjoy more than an hour of vintage performances from nearly a century ago. Best of all, you don't even need to change the needle after every selection! 66 minutes.
