Cylinder upload on Youtube for Gramophoneshane

Post by EdisonSquirrel »

Shane,

Several weeks ago you uploaded the Edison 2-minute cylinder of "Honey boy" by Miller & Werrenrath. You requested at that time that I upload their recording of "Don't worry," for which there is no audio file at the cylinder digitization site. Here it is:

Thanks for doing that Rocky :)
I wonder why they only ever recorded two songs together?

Shane,

While Miller & Werrenrath only recorded two gold-moulded cylinders for Edison, I have no idea if they turned out any wax Amberols or if they recorded together for Victor or Columbia.

I wish that the 2-minute records were easier to come by. I prefer the crisp, sharp sound of wax cylinders to that of the smoother-sounding Blue Amberols. And I love the spoken announcements!
