Post by gramophone-georg »

Have been searching for a copy of this for eons- finally found it thanks to Carsten Fischer in San Fran! :D Recorded in 1903.

Many thanks for posting this! I was lucky enough to find a copy in a huge collection I recently bought, and hadn't got round to researching what speed to play it at. Is 75rpm the 'accepted wisdom'?

No- it's stated on the label, actually.
