BILLY MURRAY WANTS TO PERFORM FOR YOU!

Post by rodpickett »

Bill Murray wants to perform for you.

Billy Murray made hundreds of recordings, but he was filmed performing only once. That was in 1928 with the Eight Famous Victor Artists in a film called At The Club.

At The Club is in pieces – literally. The film – which badly needs restoration – is at the Library of Congress, and its soundtrack is in private hands in Australia.

APS (Antique Phonograph Society) is funding the restoration of At The Club so we can watch Billy perform, but WE NEED YOUR HELP FUNDING THIS.

The restoration will cost $13,500 and we are half way there. WE HAVE ONLY 24 DAYS TO RAISE ABOUT $6,800. If we fail to make this goal, the film may never be restored.


PLEASE PITCH IN AT LEAST $50 TODAY.

You can contribute online or can send APS a check. To learn more about this project, make a tax deductible contribution, and find out about rewards for contributors, go to our Kickstarter page, link at the end of this message.

If you send a check, be sure to write Victor 8 Restoration on it.

DON’T WAIT. CONTRIBUTE NOW OR WE MAY LOSE BILLY FOREVER!

Acoustically yours,

Antique Phonograph Society
P.O. Box 169
Victorville, CA 92393
