[Dixielandjazz] Wax cylinders...NEW

[Bob Romans]

On the other hand...I was in Virginia City, Nevada, not long ago, and I 
stopped into an antique store specializing in old record players...Edison 
type, the kind that play the wax cylinders! I couldn't believe my eys when I 
saw NEW ONES, just released...with Wynton Marsalis recorded on them. 
Evidently some mouldy fig has decided to re-create wax cylinders with modern 
players...I think they were selling for about $25 each...I don't have the 
business card anymore, darn it!

Google turned up this site...I could almost swear this is where I saw the 
new cylinders...
Warmest regards,
