@1926VictorCredenza That may be, but especially if you use a cartridge needle - mine for example would cost me 25 or so dollars a play... if that isn't expensive than colour me pink.
@Gileohi The kind you are talking about are designed to be used more than once.
The type of needle that a Victrola uses are designed to be used only once, then thrown away. We're comparing apples and bananas here.... Two completely different types of needles.
Ought to let you know that Bix isn't playing on this. This was recorded on Oct 18 1929; the last session Bix played with the Whiteman orchestra was on Sept 13 when he recorded Waiting At The End Of The Road, which was released on Col 1974-D
@GennettRecords - My Bix discography concurs with your statement. The last listed Bix recording session with Whiteman was the September 13 date. Since I'm also a big Bing fan, this is a nice record all the same. Beautiful machine you have there, 1926VictorCredenza.
What a sweet recording! The combination of an electric recording in good condition on a nice Credenza with a solid reproducer is unbeatable. Good record, nice machine, great video! Thanks for sharing.
hi, i have this one being played on a viva-tonal 602 model...it's also a royal blue release...feel free to check out any tonal difference between the two videos of this fine bix and tram number...
Great recording but I can't download it. Is it restricted?

Curious, why would you want to use a new needle every play? That would quickly get expense if you listen to many records a day, don't ye think?

@Gileohi It's a lot less expensive than replacing the rare record! The needles aren't that expensive, and you can order them 1,000 at a time.

@78rpm78rpm I'm going to use your post as a blanket "catch-all" for my mistake:
I'm too lazy to fix it, and I didn't research the record when I was posting it. I'll get around to fixing it one day....

@victrola1906 Thanks for watchin'! Those Columbia Vts are almost indestructable! They really sound good and stand up to multiple plays.
