I found this box of 78s?


I dont know if the web brings people here.
Dont care much, either way.

But the last few days have been interesting.

Someone here near Kenora Ontario was giving away a big box of 78s. Free. Placed outside. First come first served... I had just bought a "grandma phone" (sp) at a garage sale for $30, just a few weeks earlier, for a display peice... so obv i grabbed these 100+ shellac slabs real quick.

Been sorting through them.... Its almost all 1914-1919 trench music.   This passed man sure loved his fox trots... and the ukelele/banjo.

So i searched youtube for some of the tracks, and slapped together a few mixes for my wife who wondered why i even got these... Once I get the steel needles for the phonograph, Ill be listening to all them... so, more mixes to come..

I am so glad I inherited these 230g slabs for free, in this tiny lil mill town, no less...

Here are some footnotes.

Part 1 and 2.

Plumtree: Live, in Studio(s)

 It's been a while since I shared a tape, so here’s one:

Plumtree: Live, in Studio





I'm not sure exactly where I got this tape. 


I'm certain it was through mail, in a tape trade, with a stranger back when people would do that kinda thing. Maybe it could it have been from YupiSlyr (Yuppie Slayer), or with someone else on the long defunct Sloannet boards (?) ... I really can't remember. 


Regardless; I've been reminiscing Plumtree as of late, and listening to this tape was a delectable lil flashback; Plumtree in their prime; a wonderful time capsule circa 94-96.. 


The recording dubs are uncut, except into three parts. each from an in studio broadcast on public and campus radio waves.


- CBC Realtime was a program that aired nationally, between 1994 and 1997. (Wiki)


- The Great Western Ballroom was a program broadcast on campus radio CJSR, in Edmonton, Alberta in the mid 1990s cjsr.com
