Eric Coates son recounted how his Mother called Eric Coates to the radio to hear this tune, the title of which he had forgotten!!....picked by the BBC to front "In town Tonight"...it went on to be his most played music......

85scampi Don't misunderstand me. I don't want to be picky but wasn't the announcement 'Once again we halt the mighty roar of London's traffic in order to bring you some of the interesting..........' It was all such a long time ago!

Hi, gezz58. Re your enquiry HMV 145. I have quite a few 78s but in plain sleeves.
Just one has an illustrated sleeve but I don't know the HMV models shown. I shall upload it on my channel but the quality may be poor. Good luck if it helps.
-
great videos! I really enjoyed listening to them - I think all would agree their is something special about this sound
-
Can any of you guys help? have a HMV model 145 and the cloth covering the hotn has long sinse vanished question is what sort of cloth should it be? also the record compartment door is gone looking for reference material to see what it should look like so I might have one made
otherwise the old bag still works great.

It is indeed the Knightsbridge March (the third movement of the London Suite) but it's by Eric Coates (August 27, 1886 -- December 21, 1957), not Farnon.

Beautiful Victrola (Gramophone) !!

The tune is the 'Knightsbridge March' composed by Robert Farnon. Wonderful vintage stuff!

Don't worry recordchanger. The gramophone mainsprings can often be quite easily repaired. Even I have done them in the past!
