Default Great Music............

If you had told me two years ago that I would be playing 30s and 40 s records I would have told you ***It's not going to happen.***

Well it did. I purchased a 1912 phonograph at auction and then went on to have the innards reworked and the cabinet refinished.

I now posess approx. 1000 records from the 1920s and on to about 1955. They are all 78 rpm.

I have spent quite a bit of time at the Perley Rideau Veteran's Hospital in Ottawa, and playing the old records to the vets is probably one of the most rewarding things I have ever done.

Some of the old guys can't give you their wive's names..... but they will name every song I play and sing along with it....

There are some great songs and music out there.
