Recorded on the repair bench in the WION engineering room, we thought you’d enjoy this video of us actually “dubbing” via microphone to a digital file of this 1929 recording so we could play it for you on the air as a feature…showing the song THEN and NOW.
This is what the mechanical motor looks like in a 1912 phonograph in Jim Carlyle’s collection of “vintage” items. The machine used for the video is a different one, but we thought you’d want to see this simplicity.

When we're not bringing you Jim and Justin or Edwards' Archives, or our Noon Newsblock, or "Totally 80's Flashback" or...Turntable Trainwrecks, or Popeye John's Monday Night Classic Rock"....or Barry Scott's Lost 45's....we're still working hard to bring you a great station with music and information EVERY hour!
