New Wax Recording of "Come Take a Trip in My Airship"

[brettk]

Hi all,

I thought you might be interested in a new record I helped put together. It's a brand new recording of "Come Take a Trip in My Airship" (1904, composed by George Evans and written by Ren Shields). The performer is the fantastic Unwoman. I had it created on a wax cylinder record by the Victrola Guy. Unwoman is planning to do a KickStarter to create additional cylinders if there's interest. I'll be sure to post here once she creates the KickStarter. In the meantime, you can hear a high-quality version of the song by subscribing to Unwoman on http://Patreon.com/unwoman or http://unwoman.bandcamp.com

More details on the project can be found in this blog post: http://alamancemakers.org/creating-a-ph ... son-style/

(My apologies for the quality of the audio - I'm still trying to get my reproducer working optimally).

I'm familiar with the version by Billy Murray on Edison 2 minute.edisonplayer

If you are interested in obtaining one of these cylinders for your very own, Unwoman has started a KickStarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/un ... x-cylinder

You can also hear the high-quality version of her song at https://unwoman.bandcamp.com/track/come ... my-airship

It really is a fantastic recording; I highly recommend it.
