Hi everyone, if you have ever been interested in listening to cylinder recordings from the late 1870's onward, here is a website which has preserved 10000 cylinders and digitized them so that people in the modern day can enjoy these early recordings for our listening pleasure. They have also a link to a list of just over 650 home recordings of people at the time who bought Edisons' Phonograph and used them in there houses and made recordings at the time on cylinders as well. The site describes this better than I can, but hope y'all enjoy. #History #recordings Overview | UCSB Cylinder Audio Archive cylinders.library.ucsb.edu/ove…
