Sunday morning shellac: Sacred and Sharon label 78s! 25 Aug 2013 | 12:07 pm
Notes Bev, "Some of the most scandal-ridden evangelical crooks operate in California." This came up in a discussion about California and its popular image (hip, ironic) vs. that of the "flyover" stat...
78s left out in the rain--Ragtime, barbershop, Hugo Winterhalter 25 Aug 2013 | 06:34 am
As you can see, I left today's 78s out in the rain (second image). Never do that. Luckily, I digitized these prior to the tragedy. And, yes, I'm kidding. But I'm not kidding when I say that today'...
The coolest record ever made: A Sunday Morning Shellac preview! 22 Aug 2013 | 11:43 am
This is the (Rex) Humbard Family from (I'm guesstimating) the early 1950s. The disc is a Sacred (litearlly, as in the label name) 78 which has endured its share of plays but which yielded decent resu...
Sunday morning shellac--Old Sacred Southern Singers, Peerless Quartet, Bethel Jubilee Quarte, more! 18 Aug 2013 | 12:20 pm
If you're here for old, old gospel 78s, then you came to the right place. Straight from my collection, and ripped and restored by me, and sorry about the bad copy of the Bethel Jubilee Quartet, but t...
"Ain't We Got Fun," "Swanee," "Sharp Shooting Sheik," "Tico-Tico," and other shellac gems! 18 Aug 2013 | 05:17 am
It seems like an eternity since my last 10" 78 rpm post, but it's only been four months. Which, I suppose, would be an eternity to, say, a bug with a two-month life span. Speaking of bugs, I have no...
Sunday Afternoon Concert: Your blogger at the keyboard 11 Aug 2013 | 08:34 pm
A Sunday concert, featuring old and new gospel favorites. Unless, of course, none of these are your favorites. Perhaps you've never thought of them. Or, perhaps, you've thought of them but have as ...
The Hale-Bopp Rag (Lee Hartsfeld, 1997) 4 Aug 2013 | 10:15 am
Last time, you heard a group of step-recorded rags by yours truly. This time, you'll hear what I sound like playing ragtime "live." The piece in question is my 1997 Hale-Bopp Rag. (Above, you can s...

My last pontification, corrected 28 Jul 2013 | 03:43 am
I made some boo-boo's in my last pontification--number and demographic errors. Nothing major. (Cha-dunk! Crash!!) Correction. Let it not be said that I fail to correct my errors, except when I do...
My first pontification since February! 23 Jul 2013 | 06:16 am
"So what?," you ask? Well, um.... Er.... Anyway, after months of not publicly pontificating ("publicly," in the Internet sense thereof), I'm back with a long, wordy essay. The topic is the usual. ...
