Description

John McCormack 1848-1945 famous Irish Tenner

This 78 appears to have been a test recording for Victor label

it plays well, a bit scratchy, but it is 89 yrs old.

The song is "Love sends a little gift of roses" the reverse is blank.

The words " Special record for private use only" is clearly printed on label.

Below is an extract from Mr McCormack's Biography, you will see that he only did 3 recordings in 1923, all for Victor :-

 

By early fall the McCormacks were back in New York, where in September John had his only three recording sessions for 1923 (September 24-26). The family usually spent winters in their New York apartment, though McCormack was often on the road with Schneider and McSweeney. After two further Victor sessions in April 1924, McCormack again for European engagements, where in Paris he participated in a Beethoven Festival under the baton of Walter Damrosch. His performances were notable for including the recitative and aria from Christ on the Mount of Olives (Christus am Ölberg). These items he would later record for Victor, but they would remain unpublished until the LP era (RCA Camden CAL-635).

Its intersesting to see that hand written on the label is :-

B28601 Sept 24,23 CNP148 " Love sends McCormack"
