Jim Walsh - Favorite Pioneer Recording Artist - article set

[kendphono]

I have just posted on ebay a near complete set of articles by Jim Walsh written monthly for Hobbies Magazine from 1942 to 1978. The articles are very informative and have a wealth of information on the phonograph and recording companies as well as the artists. This link should get you there.

This is great for those interested in records and artists.

I should also point out that there are a number of articles In addition to the Jim Walsh articles that are written by "Aida Favia Artsay". An example of one is in the September 1976 issue titled, "Pitch and Speed of "78's"". Also worth reading.

Favia-Artsay took over the historical opera column from Steven Lasker. Well worth reading. Facia-Artsay and Lasker and Walsh are all now deceased.

Walsh's 50 -odd years of articles are the most valuable, IMO. He conducted interviews with many players from the early days of the industry, who were still living, when most people couldn't have a given a crap.
