I have an English pressing of "One Meat Ball" by The Andrews Sisters and the version that Tony Pastor & His Orchestra recorded on Victor. Funny, I can remember exactly where I bought my Andrews Sisters copy. I think I paid a whopping 50 cent for it at a thrift store.
Great Show Jeff!,I've been watching for awhile now an i gotta say i don't usually listen to much pre 1950's music but now you have got me listening to more ealy jazz and swing(thank you for that and keep em coming Jesiah.
Hello, Jesiah! Thanks for watching and commenting! Greatly appreciate it! Happy to inspire others to check out early jazz and swing. So much good music from the early decades. Enjoy your exploration! Skol, Jeff
@@ToneInGroovesHey Thanks for the reply,i was rewatching the video and noticed you mentioned how you had to use a new recording program to record your vinyl and 78's.i suggest you try Spin it again by Acustica, it only cost 20.00 to buy and i've been using it since 2009, an old high school history teacher recommend it to me when i was still in school and i've been Archiving my Record Collection with it ever since,good luck and keep spinin' Jesiah. P.S. i tried to see i there's a Install for Mac but i'm still unsure if there is one.
Hey, Jeremy! Did not know that was Barnet's theme song. Thanks for the detail. And thanks for watching and commenting. Always greatly appreciated! Skol, Jeff
Catching this one year later. Sooo enjoyed thank you.👍❤️ Loved the set up. Have been collecting for a while and love it as much any hobbies I enjoy. Started with coins, baseball cards, comic books as a very young paperboy in the 70's and enjoy our vibrate, varied national history especially early jazz, bluegrass, WWII big band onward to gospel, rock, & easy listening. Keep spinning ❤️
Hello, Richard! Always good to connect with other 78 enthusiasts. Thank you for watching and commenting. Been on the move - see latest video for details about that - and hope to be back in action soon. Skol! Jeff
Thanks so much for the shoutout and for playing “One Meat Ball” 😀. I was hoping you would feature it. Ry Cooder’s cover version is a fun listen too but I think the Andrew Sisters version is the bomb! So good! I think the new set up with Garage Band sounds good. I enjoyed the whole show, Jeff. Thanks again. Cheers
Hey, Topper! Thanks for watching and commenting. And thank you for inspiring me! I've been busy and not making videos, but kept thinking: "Topper asked you to play that One Meat Ball song. You gotta do a listening session." Yeah, I was pleased with how the Garage Band recording came out. Only thing so far...I don't see a way to make a mono recording. I like to digitize my 78s and record them in mono. Maybe there is a way and I just need to get better aquatinted with the software. Anyway... thanks again. Skol! Jeff
Fun listens! Recently subbed to your channel after diving into collecting 78s. My first shellac stacks listening session watched. What inner sleeves do you use?
Hello, Tyler! Thanks for watching and commenting! I buy the 78 sleeves from Bags Unlimited. Usually the gold ones, but this last time around a bought the white ones which are a slightly heavier paper. Skol! Jeff
Can you find and play Peggy Lee singing " Manana is Soon Enough for Me" Guy Mitchell's "Christopher Columbus" "Mama eu Quiero?" Oh and i forgot about The Ames Brothers song, "The Thing"
Hello, John! I'll take a peek and see what I have in the collection. I do have The Thing performed by Phil Harris. Fun song! Thanks for watching and commenting. Skol! Jeff
Somehow I've missed your channel until now. Great, fun stuff, now subbed. I just received a stack of 78s but have no way to play them so I might take the plunge. I've been curious about Charlie Barnet since Tom Waits mentioned him in one of his songs. Looking forward to more! (another) Jeff btw.
Hello, Jeff!! Always good to meet another Jeff in the VC. Thanks for watching, commenting, and subbing! Appreciate it greatly! I got into 78s after I was given a couple of boxes. Hauled them around for years and then finally decided to buy a turntable that will play them. I have enthralled the moment I dropped the needle on the first 78 I played - Apalachicola, FLA by Bing Crosby and the Andrews Sisters. Still love that song! I encourage you to take the plunge! Skol, Jeff
It's a Numark M6. I use it to mix the music from the records with my voice on the microphone. Also, has it's own built in phono pre-amp and tone controls so I'm able to refine the sound from each record by adjusting bass, midrange, and treble. Thanks for watching and commenting. Skol! Jeff
I have the same TT. Are you using an ortofon 78 stylus? I use a program called vinyl studio: www.alpinesoft.co.uk/ There is a fix for Audacity and Mac OS Catalina: www.audacityteam.org/macos-10-15-catalina-is-not-yet-supported-by-audacity/
Thank you for watching and commenting. In answer to your question...no, I use the Grado 78 cartridge & stylus. I like it! And thank you for all the info. Really appreciate it. Yes - I saw that Audacity fix for the mac and tried entering that string into the Utilites app. But it didn't work. Quite possibly an error on my part. I'm not very computer savvy, so I probably did something wrong. The Vinyl Studio software looks quite promising. I'll probably give the free trial a go and see how I like it. Thanks, again!
After some more research, I figured it out! Had to download the newest version of Audacity. Probably should have thought of that. But anyway...Audacity seems to be working again! Yeah!
