Description
E+ *RARELY FOUND* Edison Diamond Disc #51953:
"WHY DID DR. JEKYL-HIDE?"
-and-
"MY BABY'S BACK (Cock-A-Doodle I'm Off My Noodle)". Both sides are wonderful novelty recordings by Al Campbell & Jack Kaufman.
This is a very rarely found Edison Diamond Disc. I looked for more than 30 years to find this record.
*INTERESTING HISTORICAL NOTE ON DR. JEKYL SIDE*...About halfway through the recording Jack Kaufman tells Al Campbell:
"I'll have JUST ENOUGH time to go home and listen to THE NEW 40 MINUTE RECORD OF THOMAS EDISON'S!" to which Al Campbell replies: "40 MINUTES!! WOW!! THAT'S SOME RECORD!"
[This is perhaps the very FIRST recorded reference to the very short-lived 40-MINUTE Edison Long Play Diamond Discs]
Both sides play GREAT.
