Welcome to my little corner of the web. Nothing very fancy or high tech, just some fun and interesting music and phonographs from the first half of the late, lamented century.
I will be presenting virtually all types of music, from the serious to the trivial played on my collection of vintage Phonographs, Grafonolas and Victrolas. So pour a glass of your favorite beverage, turn down the lights and turn up the volume! Enjoy and Thank you for stopping in!

What a lovely collection you have. I wish I could play my old records, but my nephew broke my record player, and I can't find any of quality in my little town.

Thanks you for sharing these with us.
