78rpm Restoration - Sol Hoopii and his Novelty Five - Farewell Blues
DECCA DLA1667

Please comment, tell me how you thought it sounded.

Give a man 10 years of unemployment and he can create anything,
I Have!, and its this New way to preserve older discs,film,tapes.

I was always appalled at the lack of Top end (treble) that most restored CD's
Of older material had, once i started mucking about with 78's I got it back

So hear for the first time the FULL range of frequency that is locked into each and every 78rpm disc.

Any if you like what you hear, Drop a line! you never know you might have some discs or know of someone with discs they'd like to hear properly.

Sounds like music from "Spongebob Squarepants!"


Oh and Im a purist when it comes to the original sound on Disc, I love my MONO restorations as its the way nature intended them to be heard, These YOUTUBE restorations are in "Fake Stereo" an effect I created by pure accident due to a few broadcasters wanting me to "slapback reverb" them for ONAIR use, I went with another, Unique Method. heard here for the first time.

And those pure mono versions are on my blog, you get to choose from two versions, a "good" one and a Too Much Noise Reduced One "TMNR" !

who else gives you such choice, Oh and if anyone out there is Hiring at the moment,,,,, CD Companies? Archives? umm... Call centures?

Great job !! what software did u use to reduce pops/crackle etc ??

[ade425mxy]

@fatshoolaces My Very own Design...

I've always been bugged by transcriptions which remove the surface noise at the expense of the high end. 78s contain a lot of sonic information and you've done a very good job at preserving it. Kudos!

@ionahoopii And this from a 78 that was pitted and very worn. Imagine what I could do with better discs, Yes, imagine is all i can do. Ive not found any 78's now for getting on to 4 years.

When did he record for RCA Shaded Dog?

[ade425mxy]

@buybeach Forget the the label on the disc. Its a "wild shot" of any old disc being run. I Don't film my transfers so I use this Reel of many discs spinning.

The real label is on the Regal Zonophone AU brand.

Ive been transfering 78's for 5-7 years, 90% other people's discs, so thats why I use these "record spinning" clips. I got a lot of flac for doing it and now just use a still of the label

Great job,great song,I like all the sound effects.

This is more than amazing!!, your stereo process really comes across well on this!!. In addition, your re-mastering brings out the guitar detail, and the background instruments now emerge from a much quieter background, while retaining the ambiance of the original...Great transfer...Keep it up!!...Friends, Lloyd.
