1908 Edison
"Gold Moulded" Cylinder Record - Waltz
Song "Take Me Out to the Ball Game"
#9926. This rendition of "Take Me out
to the Ball Game;" words by Jack Norworth, music by Albert Von Tilzer,
was performed by Edward Meeker, and
recorded on September 8, 1908 on an
Edison 2 minute black wax cylinder. The
very first version of the famous
baseball classic was sung by Harvey
Hindermeyer, recorded on a standard
record disc, with Columbia's "Client"
label, in August of 1908.
By the end of the 19th century, as the limitations of brown wax cylinders
became increasingly evident, Edison
returned to the laboratory in an
attempt to make refinements to his
pioneering developments in sound
recording. The "Gold-Moulded" process,
developed in 1902, significantly
improved these limitations. The
popular songs, instrumental pieces, and
vaudeville routines of the day formed
the bulk of the Edison Gold-Moulded
series. Between 1902 and 1912, when
these cylinders were discontinued,
thousands of titles were recorded and
issued.
