FOR SALE: THE BONNIE BLUE FLAG - POLK MILLER - $100

Post by FellowCollector »

In my opinion one of the most breathtaking and impressive recordings on Edison. The immortal Civil War Confederate rally song, The Bonnie Blue Flag (We Are A Band Of Brothers), written in 1861 with powerful lyrics, Polk Miller's simple banjo accompaniment along with his singing with the Quartette are just incredible. Very difficult to find Edison cylinder and this 4 minute Wax Amberol is in excellent condition. I've played this one through and it plays outstanding. I am awestruck every time I hear this particular Edison recording. Original box with matching titled lid included.

PM with interest. USPS Media Mail included to USA address.
