This is a very rare recording on a brown wax Columbia Graphophone brown wax cylinder from 1897. At that time "commercial" cylinder recordings were made by having the artist sing into several horns at one time These horns were connected to multiple recording machines by way of rubber tubes. In this was only a very limited number of recordings could be "manufactured' at one time. The artist would have to perform over and over again to record "larger" quantities. It would take another 5 years before molded cylinders recording were developed. Needless to say such records may have existed in the hundreds or perhaps a thousand of a real popular tune when NEW. Real artists only performed on the STAGE and rarely for the phonograph crowd for obvious reasons, until the development of better recording techniques... SLEIGH RIDE PARTY
