The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I've been poking around and have not come across a list of Christmas titles on Diamond Disc. Does anyone have/know of anything like that?

(I have a pretty good idea of cylinders. But other than a Silent Night or so, I'm kind of completely in the dark as to what's available on Disc.)

Thanks Lucious1958 and larryh for sharing these!

Keep in mind that Edison cylinders released after late 1914 were generally dubbed from Diamond Discs, so virtually every Christmas cylinder is also available on disc. I imagine there are some disc-only issues too, but I know of no explicit list of them.

Also:

50302 O Little Town of Bethlehem / Once In Royal David's City
50303 It Came Upon A Midnight Clear / Angels From The Realms Of Glory
50304 Adeste Fideles (Oh Come, All Ye Faithful) / Hallelujah Chorus
50379 In The Toymaker's Workshop / March of the Toys
50382 Christmas Eve -Fantasie / Why The Chimes Rang
50383 Santa Claus Song / Du Du and Doctor Eisenbart
50843 Christmas Carols / Old-home Songs
51868 Christmas Recollections / Star of the East
52129 Christmas In Other Lands, Pt. 1 / Christmas In Other Lands, Pt. 2
80258 Comfort Ye My People - Messiah / Ev'ry ValleyShall Be Exalted
80266 Stille Nacht, Heilige Nacht / Am Rhein Und Beim Wein
80291 He Shall Feed his Flock / Soft Southern Breeze
80643 Nazareth / Silent Night
80854 Palms / Silent Night
82026 Silent Night / Killarny
82171 Silent Night / O Holy Night
83063 Stille Nacht, Heilige Nacht / Bandbolero

My favorite is Christmas Morning With The Kiddies, in which the mother exclaims to the children that father bought them a new Edison Diamond Disc phonograph!

P.s. (I believe 50488 should be 50448.)

Here are some Christmas tunes I compiled a few years back, with examples of cylinders, 78s and Diamond Discs:

Hope you enjoy them!

Thank you all!! Now I have some work to do!

And thank you Mr. Barnett for the sampler. Now I even have some Christmas tunes to play through my Brunswick!

Cheers,

Michael

I recently aquired a copy of 52131 - Christmas songs for children, and plan to record it soon. I''d be happy to share it.

Merry Christmas everyone!
Here's a recording of "Christmas Songs for Children" - DD 52131.
