He sure does, you're right. Forum support is one thing but let me tell you I just checked the catalogue and may find myself with a copy of "Deep Henderson." Second choice would be "Doin' the Raccoon." What a wonderful resource for antique music.
One thing though, I collect what I like, and was thinking to fill up my collection on Billy Murray, Ada Jones, the National Promenade Band, Edison Symphony Orchestra, VAN EPS and OSSMAN, and old sketches, etc. Cheap and cheerful, and one of my other favorite music styles.
Other thing to do, is get my sagging wreck of an Amberola 30 working well enough to be worthy of one of these new cylinders, as well as the vintage BA's I also plan to collect. The Amb plays okay after a little tinkering but needs a new grill, a lot of maintenance, and a reproducer rebuild.
