yk whats crazy, im getting nostalgia from this song cuz of fallout gaming in the past when I was a kid, what media does for old songs is amazing, this is almost 70+ years out of my generation but I love it so damn much
It's absurd to put a disc on a gramophone that's not in the right format. Start with a 78 rpm disc, then it'll work. It's not a problem of recording era. You could very well record today's music on a 78 rpm disc.
Absolutely incredible. I could almost weep. Imagine that at one time that was high tech. I wish that I could go back. Fantastic. Thank you for filming and sharing.
Nice! what 45 record it is? also, you can play modern records somewhat, you just need to shapen the tip of the steel needle and slow it down to 45rpm and that's it. i have done it and it works and it plays fine. If it's still slowing down then try shapening the needle more untill it start's playing properly.
You can play vinyl mate on gramophones but it has to be 78 rpm I’ve been doing it for ages absolutely fine. 45 rpm however are actually shite and shouldn’t be done on a gramophone
that's so interesting to hear. it is late and i'm playing this back through tiny laptop speakers. i'm going to come back tomorrow when i can play it through my 'stereo' to get a better idea. thanks. where do you get to hear this? :)
One evening as the sun went down And the jungle fire was burning, Down the track came a hobo hiking, And he said, "Boys, I'm not turning I'm headed for a land that's far away Besides the crystal fountains So come with me, we'll go and see The Big Rock Candy Mountains In the Big Rock Candy Mountains, There's a land that's fair and bright, Where the handouts grow on bushes And you sleep out every night Where the boxcars all are empty And the sun shines every day On the birds and the bees And the cigarette trees The lemonade springs Where the bluebird sings In the Big Rock Candy Mountains In the Big Rock Candy Mountains All the cops have wooden legs And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs The farmers' trees are full of fruit And the barns are full of hay Oh I'm bound to go Where there ain't no snow Where the rain don't fall The wind don't blow In the Big Rock Candy Mountains In the Big Rock Candy Mountains You never change your socks And the little streams of alcohol Come trickling down the rocks The brakemen have to tip their hats And the railroad bulls are blind There's a lake of stew And of whiskey, too You can paddle all around 'em In a big canoe In the Big Rock Candy Mountains In the Big Rock Candy Mountains, The jails are made of tin And you can walk right out again, As soon as you are in There ain't no short-handled shovels, No axes, saws or picks, I'ma goin' to stay Where you sleep all day, Where they hung the Turk That invented work In the Big Rock Candy Mountains I'll see you all this coming Fall In the Big Rock Candy Mountains"
I’ve collected for 15 years and have found Zippity Doo Dah Berliner records. Since my hobbies extend beyond 78s and early machines, (45s & LPS, other audio formats, cameras, vintage video, computers) I’ve been very reluctant to purchase a record that’s gonna cost me over $100. (That’s money for 16mm film development ect) and of course the essentials food, bills, all the stuff that comes first…
Wash the record with dish washing liquid and warm water. Dry with a diaper or lentless cloth. Get a better stiless. Crackles are from dirt in the groves.
It will not cause damage provided you have the proper 3 mil stylus to play old gramophone 78 records on a modern turntable,and should of course play 78rpm,if you play a microgroove stylus it will sound poor and could cause damage to needle.
Are there any modern shellac records you can play on your gramophone? Fortionatly you can easly get vinyl records nowadays cuz they are made again, what about shellac ones? Also, can you play a shellac record on a modern record player?
