The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I was playing my Edison Concert machine yesterday and thought about what a great Christmas song would sound like on it. Does anyone have a nice 5inch Cylinder Record of any Christmas music?

Original or new production is fine...I didn’t see any Christmas titles from Vulcan and can’t pull Paul Morris’ availability up online.

Thanks,

Joe

If you find someone with multiple reproductions I’d be interested as well.

I contacted Paul Morris this weekend and he does not currently have any 5” concert Christmas records available. He did ask me if he set up to do this what types of things I was looking for and how many different titles I would be interested in. I think if a number of people contact him showing interest he may produce several 5” concert Christmas titles.

Perhaps we can get a group buy started!

Suggestions for titles?

Ive always been fond of the classics...O Come All Ye Faithful, jingle bells, wish you a merry Christmas, etc. I think anything like that would be nice. I’ve bought cylinders from Paul before, I know he does an excellent job!

How about "Joy To The World"? That would sound great on a Graphophone Grand! edisonplayer
