[78-L] Question

[Philip Carli]

There's also an excellent cut version by the Band of H.M. Grenadier Guards on Columbia (2 sides) from about 1911 -- thrilling performance, presumably under Albert Williams.  I have a sneaking feeling I also have that red Vocalion 12", it might be by the Scots Guards.  The strange thing about it is the incomprehensible cutting which garbles the piece, although they give it 2 sides.  The Columbia is quite sensibly cut and still coheres.

 The Edison studio squoze a fraction onto a 1908 wax Amberol cylinder, # 51.
My favorite is some military band on a 12" Aeolian-Vocalion,  with a
previous owner's helpful note on the label: "A disgrace to Tschaikowsky"  !!
