“One way to understand the past is to listen to the music of the time. The Internet Archive is making that easier than ever with over 395,000 digitized records in the 78 RPM style, which dominated from 1900 to about 1950. The files are free to access, stream, and download. The collection is more than just entertaining, it is an important effort to digitize the sounds of history which have been preserved on brittle disks for almost a century.“

I have an old 78 demo my dad cut when he was a young fellow. I need to digitize it so I can share. He was a great musician on piano and harmonica. Played clubs all over the place but fatherhood forced him into the dreaded day job
