This record is in great shape. The crisp percussion had me fooled.

Thanks David, only a little bit of distortion at the start but good after that.

Great slide show, and a WWI song I had not heard before! Is this an Edison?

[pax41]

Nope, this is a Victor.

A good one for WWI I haven't heard before. Linked it with a project I was doing for scouts, thanks!

America should never have gotten involved in WW1 it was none of our business and it wasn't worth one American boys blood. Europeans started it they should have finished it ALONE.
