Most of this channel is devoted to older music being played on a variety of vintage phonographs/gramophones I own. I have a special fondness for the little window of time between 1927 and 1934 when a very special kind of music was being recorded, just after the advent of electrical recording, and before the world devolved into swing and big band. I do not hold the copyrights on these recordings and they are only being presented as examples of vintage records being played on vintage machines. I hope you take time to listen to some of these that I've discovered. When playing records with steel needles I always use a brand new soft tone only. I enjoy the immediacy of the sound it produces on a good non-electric portable.

This is the song Paul’s grandfather sings at the police in A HARD DAY’S NIGHT.
First time I ever heard this song was on a Seldom Scene album back in the early 70s. I didn't know it was a Merle Haggard song. I was more into Buck Owens than the Hag.
- - - - - - - I worked at Buzzy's on RT3 in Millerville at this time and recall there were 2 bands, Alabama County Home and a bluegrass band, this must be you. Any photos of the inside of the place? I recall watching an Elvis movie on the primitive projection tv along with the bluegrass band (who had 1 female member) after everyone left & we closed up. Friendly band members.
@@scsu5085 I don’t have any photos. I’m lucky to have the tapes we played there a number of times in the early 1980’s. Nice to hear from you!
This is better than the cranberries
My oldest record in my collection
Is this Okinawa? What I mean is this is the region of Japan, where this sound comes from?
OH! MY FAVOURITE by Annette Hanshaw! Gee, it sounds swell! "...I've Got A Feeling I'm Falling and how!"😁💖
独特の チック バロック 節 オールラウンドの 素晴らしい歌手 ❤ thank you from tokyo 🇯🇵
Brings back Bermuda memories from 1975 :)
Thank you for sharing; I love this song.
Brilliant sound quality.
One of the earliest songs written by Pete Wendling.
Hard on the ears but glad to hear this earliest version. Thanks
I love it man
A very sad time for both nations. What was done to China is unforgivable.
Number 16 remains for me the best sounding one ever made by HMV.
I don’t think I like the 16 as much as the other orthophonics. And the inner works on the 16 are not very substantial.
A variation of Ed Kirkeby's "California Ramblers". Vocal Refrain by the Wilson Quartet.
1938, if I'm not mistaken.

Don't know why There's no sun up in the sky Stormy weather Since my man and I ain't together Keeps raining all of the time Oh, yeah Life is bad Gloom and misery everywhere Stormy weather, stormy weather And I just can get my poor self together Oh, I'm weary all of the time The time, so weary all of the time When she went away The blues walked in and met me Oh, yeah if he stays away Old rocking chair's gonna get me All I do is pray The Lord will let me Walk in the sun once more Oh, I can't go on, can't go on, can't go on Everything I have is gone Stormy weather, stormy weather Since my man and I, me and my daddy ain't together Keeps raining all of the time Oh, oh, keeps raining all of the time Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah raining all of the time Stormy stormy Stormy weather Yeah ======================
Thank you One day AI will resurrect this recording crazy huh? who'd a thunk it
A hundred years ago. Cool to see on a 78 phonograph. The real deal.
A nicely performed cowboy favorite! Great harmonies!
In my days of a severe bronchitis (and so on...) it brought a little relief...
www.oldworldmusic.org/ Some background information about Fabian Okulski and his family.
Long before he became "The Founder" of McDonald's Ray Kroc used to play piano with this band in Florida.
An ‘oldies playing with rain in the background’ video brought me here. Lovely song
You couldn’t release a song like this today. It’s not PC.
He didn't bark once.
Interesting that the narrator called the song… The Laughing Song when the title was actually The Laughing Coon as you can see on the record if you look closely! Johnson had other songs as well, one entitled The Whistling Coon… and though I appreciate the recognition I hope that my people will be able to see that this is yet another example of Blackploitation! He was not considered on the basis of his extraordinary talent but rather as a laughing and whistling “coon”… to be taken advantage of by the oppressors.
Magic, I uploaded this today.
I’m surprised no one else tried this song as a bluegrass tune. I thought it worked well.
Sweet song
Don't like this take, prefer the one posted by The78Prof. was the one he posted the Crown recording on accident or just another Columbia Take?
Good to know, thank you for telling me!
Please transfer this if you have the equipment.
His Master's Cackle!
What name is this gramophone and needle sold under?
It’s just an older Garrard turntable with a Shure needle and cartridge.
@@columbia1930 thank you. It was my favorite sound.
at old RFK STADIUM ... Eagles vs SKINS in the Capital Shootout.. 1989 Randall vs RYPIEN BIRDS win in a come from behind victory
Read about it on Napoleon Hills book, and it puts always a smile on!! In never fails!!!!
🏈"Hail to the Redskins"! Fight for old D.C.! Wow this is retro, I love it! 🏈 Was this for the former Boston Redskins? I shall assume so! The Redskins moved to Washington in 1937. (?) I wasn't sure about the date of this song. LoL 🏈
This was recorded for the Washington Redskins in August 1939!
After all they wouldn’t be fighting for “old DC” if they were still in Boston!
There was no team in Atlanta or Carolina back then so the Redskins did own the south.
@@columbia1930 Hi there, thanks for your comment! I totally agree/concur of course! I wonder if there is any truth to the version of "fight for old Dixie"?! LOL My family was wondering about that. The team did represent the south then after all. Just a random thought. 🏈
@@DCBARNONE89 I don’t think so. Listen close to the words. It’s DC not Dixie. We were the team for most of the south, however. Just coincidence.
Originally released on [American] OKeh 41301.

YES! 😃
Beautiful🌝🌼🌸🌺
Songs such as this one deserve more praise
Al bowlly did a wonderful romantic rendition of this, annette doing great on this as always, unfortunate the condition of this.
Thanks for listening. Condition is how I found it.
I was just shocked to learn this is a song. Being a redhead with freckles my Grandpa and Dad would sing 🎶 she’s got freckles on her but my she’s pretty” and that was the only Line. I thought it so odd and they’d sing it and laugh like they were teasing me. I grew up hearing it and now I find that it’s a song. I have no idea why they thought this was funny to sing to me but it always brought them laughter at my expense.
I’m sorry they made you uncomfortable. Adults don’t understand sometimes that they are saying hurtful things to their kids.
@@columbia1930 I didn’t mind. It was never a full song and it is a memory I have and at my age I don’t have many. Lol
It’s a silly song and fun.
@@user-li5vn5tl3y it’s not my “best” video but I think it’s got the most views. By far.
Great, beautiful music and beautiful quality footage! What do you use to film? (Back then unless you still use this camera)
Panasonic LUMIX DMC-G3, Olympus 25mm f1.8 lens
I should stabilize this video though, it’s a little shaky. I shoot all these handheld. CZcams used to have a built in stabilizer but they removed it, so I have to get creative and use other methods and software to smooth the videos out, and I never did it on this video…
Thanks again for another pretty Annette song. She had just turned 25 here....
I like it!
C'mon Nancy !!!
