Wait Till You See My Gal on Edison Disc by Georgia Melodians

The Georgia Melodians were an early jazz band in the 20s. They recorded a few records for Edison but for some reason did not stay together very long. Unfortunately 1924 they had broken up. This selection is played on an Edison Chippendale Model C19 from about 1921 or a bit later.

Hi, Actually no, you saw a 1A and a 1B. I'm going to post some videos of those playing too in the next few months but I don't have access to them right now. They are in the USA and I live in Czech

Thanks Rocky, Check back soon. I'm in the process of uploading "Red Hot Mamma" as we speak. It's the Blue Amberol version, which does not sound quite as good. The Chippendale is on it's way to Europe now so within a couple months I'll be able to post the diamond disc. That one is fantastic!

Thanks Paal,

Now that I've figured out how to do this you can expect a few more from time to time.

Check out a couple of marches on the Edison Triumph which I also posted today.

Cheers, Valecnik

You have quite a gorgeous phonograph collection of my favorite Edisons as do I. But yours beats mine! Marc.

The 1924 Georgia Melodians' recordings are unquestionably the hottest acoustically recorded dance band material on Edison diamond disc.

The Georgia Melodians are among the best dance bands to record for Edison. Thank for posting this great record.

Beautiful C-19!
