Nice! Good to actually hear a song from 106 years ago.

@The1985Channel Thanks for your comments!

@MusicBoxBoy Hearing these songs really does feel like a trip back in time; it's a shame that people these days tend to surrender themselves to this overcommercialised, predictable crap like Bruno Mars and LMFAO. I absolutely hate today's music. Great to see that these old records have stood the test of time pretty well.

The horn matches the Vic III beautifully. The recording was made 2/21/1906.

This song is a lot of fun! I love that it combines two of my interests - antique cars and vintage phonos/records. These guys are really making fun of automobiles, aren't they. Of course, that was a very popular thing to do at that time, since cars were still in their infancy. I really enjoyed this!

60 cents back then was a fortune. This is great!!! 

[MusicBoxBoy]

@WinterHaven You are right with that. 60 cents was quite a lot to spend on one record back then. Thanks as always for the nice comments!

@RockandRollFriday My recording of In My Merry Oldsmobile by Billy Murray is on an early Victor single sided Grand Prize label but I'm going to keep it for now until I find a better copy of it.

@RockandRollFriday Thanks for the nice comments! I like that one too. I have that record as well but I'm looking for a better copy of it as my current one is rather worn.
