Wow! That was before the Fantasy's colored wax era, specially red and blue!

[jazzyoz]

really does anyone know if this was recorded before the accident or after?

@jazzyoz

This was recorded June, 1950, released shortly thereafter.

Man oh Man!

I also dig the old Garrard turntable.

Fabulous sound for a 78.

What did you use for a cartridge?

Was it digitally reprocessed?

Thanks.

I use an old GE VR II cartridge, top of the line early-mid 1950s, made expressly for mono 78s. Very forgiving and totally ignores any up and down movement, not like stereo cartridges which interpret up and down movement as a whole other channel of hiss and pops. This cartridge also almost completely ignores cracks in the records, again, the up and down movement. They are still around but it's tough to find someone willing to part with theirs.
