__ I __ can debunk this.  I have seen and actually held the ORIGINAL 
Brahms cylinder.  It is not Brahms voice, Edison was thousands of miles 
away, and the words on it do not even include Edison's NAME.

The translation of what is actually said in German goes something like 
"In the house of Mr. Fellinger, I have Mr. Doctor Brahms, Johannes Brahms.

I'll get the links later.
