Edison Blue Amberol #5717, Every Moon’s A Honeymoon!

Post by Zwebie »

Edison Blue Amberol #5717, Every Moon’s A Honeymoon, by The Rollickers.

In 33 years of collecting, this is the latest Blue Amberol I have ever found.
Definitely a late electric, it plays super loud and clear!
I searched the web and couldn’t find a youtube posting, or anything else about this late title.
I wonder how many copies have been found?
Was this title electrically dubbed from an electrically recorded Diamond Disc?
(It was on Edison Diamond Disc 52544).

Here is my youtube posting:

Major congrats on finding this. Ron Dethlefson's second BA book shows the stock card for this one on p. 415. 100 copies were ordered and only 79 were pressed in June and July 1929.

As for being electrically dubbed, the jury is still out on those. It's known that attempts were made for many titles numbered 5650 and higher, but it's not clear which were successful and which were not.
