Billy Murray - Edison Cylinder Records - Foolish Question ..

[Lucius1958]

Interesting side note: "Foolish Questions" was inspired by Rube Goldberg's popular series of cartoons under the same title..... You could pair that with the later Blue Amberol, "I'm the Guy" (also By Murray") - also inspired by Goldberg's cartoons, and with lyrics by Goldberg.

Heard the first song in a different video and that was the first thing I thought of. I love this kind of music.

Great song! I love Billy Murray to! As far as I'am concerned, Billy Murray is the best singer that ever lived!

I have a 78 of Florrie Forde singing this as "Down at the old Bull and Bush" which i think was the original title of the song.

Two great songs. Thank's for sharing. Sounds like your reproducer might need to rebuilt. It would sound much clearer.

Billy Murray gets so much credit for his patriotic songs when I feel his real contribution is as a drunkards hero.

I asked Johnny Amberol about that. He stated that he reviewed the video and noticed that there was just a white piece of paper inside the cylinder. The inner itself is not white. Thanks for watching our vid. :)

Gotta love Billy Murray. One of America's greatest recording artist.

Is "foolish Questions" an original cylinder, or a reproduction? It appeared to have a white inner like the old Electrophone cylinders made in the 1980's.

Both cylinder are original.What looks to be A white Core is A white piece of paper that accidentally got put on with the record.I have A few electrophone Cylinders but they are all red.
