MP3s of 78 rpm Records

If you like to mix and match your ancient and modern technologies, then head over to Turtle's 78 rpm Jukebox for a batch of mp3s of records made during the acoustic era of recording, before electricity was used in the recording process at all. Turtle is offering up scads of public domain material  by Bill Murray and others who've been featured on both of WFMU's 78rpm / Edison Cylinder programs, Thomas Edison's Attic and The Antique Phonograph Music Program, both of which are also available as podcasts. via boingboing

I have been in and out of the 78 rpm collecting biz for about 50 years. Right now I have less than 100 discs, mostly jazz , blues , gospel,and country. I am forced by a computer class (yes, I am a 62 year old undergraduate) to keep a blog so I decided to dedicate it to recording technology over the years. I look forward to accessing your blog as a first reference point.
