[78-L] JENNY LIND was wanted EJs biography Edward J Smith Eddie Smith

[dlennick dlennick]

Interesting. I uploaded this a couple of years ago and didn't notice 
till now that because I didn't number the first 9 tracks with a zero in 
front, they show up in the wrong sequence. I'm still not used to doing 
that.

  I was going to save this for tomorrow, but here it is.
  In stereo, yet.

    Jenny Lind's history is well researched and I've yet too see a 
serious
  mention of a lost - or preserved - recording of her voice. The article
  you refer to implies that there exists such a recording within the
  Swedish Royal Family, which is pure fantasy.
    I fear Mr Smith may have bought the recording from a fanciful 
dealer,
  including the story about the Royal Swedish Family.
    Didn't he have recordings of Geronimo and Wild Bill Hickock as well?
