The History of the Major Record Companies in the UK #4 Aeolian

ive got an aeolian vocalian B 12115 copyright 1916 the song is America Never Took Water by Irving Kaufman and the other side is A 12115 I Know What It Means To Be Lonesome by Irving Kaufman. just found this page as i was attempting to find a value or info about the album. Thank you so much for posting information here! a family was selling everything out of their moms house and the records were all for sale.. i only found this one and a few other names that i thought were interesting like a few Decca records by various artists. and a columbia disc record with a german solo on it. and one (Cook Test record for frequency) also interesting. This was the most unique one of the few i purchased. most were newer records.

Sound Of The Hound

This is the fourth and final extract from a wonderful book called “The Talking Machine Industry” written by Ogilvie Mitchell in 1924. This section covers the Aeolian Company of America, a frisky new arrival on the record scene in 1924 having started to make Vocalion phonographs and records in 1917.

Ogilvie, our scribe, seems to have drunk deep from the Aeolian PR cup and this extract feels at times more like a puff piece than his earlier pieces on Pathe Freres, The Gramophone Company and The Columbia Phonograph Company. He describes Aeolian as well financed, with a superior business model and delivering top notch products. He even concludes “we feel certain that, as time goes on, they will hold one of the most exalted positions in the talking machine world.” Aeolian would sell Vocalion with the year, so exiting the record business and the Aeolian business unwinding quickly…

random fun spring projects and things that make us smile

I created a separate blog for those whom do not have wordpress, on blogspot as well. I will post back and forth when i find something amazing to share. :).

Tonight I was on Facebook and saw someone had posted a cute idea using an umbrella as a wreath project for spring. there are several pictures and found it was a blogger on blogspot. so had to share it on my blog as well…when i did so, i though why not just create a whole separate page for cute projects and ideas? so i did there…then realized i had only one page! so i made another one…where i could share uplifting stories. upon searching for one, i googled happy stories. of course, to make us smile.

This is the random blog i found…http://randomthoughtsfromanincoherentmind.blogspot.com/2013/04/april-showers.html and added to my own blog as well on blogspt and on wordpress.

There were many amazing stories! The most perfect though had to be the random stranger whom left a 25 thousand dollar tip to give a stranger a new cosmetic smile. How amazing and generous. Every day is sunny when we smile…and share with others. http://everydayissunnywhenyousmile.blogspot.com/p/good-stories-to-make-us-smile.html

two free audio books at amazon

Currently i know there are lots of things in this world that are free. 1 is a smile. 2 is a hug. 3. is a small gesture to let someone know you are thinking of them. and while there is a trial membership with amazon, that you can cancel you can get two free audiobooks if you try out the membership. great for reading on the go without carrying books along. what is more peaceful than a nice shady spot on a warm spring day reading a favorite story 😉

be sure to find the link to do just that on a separate blog where it is easier for me to work. i did expand to wordpress but cannot figure out how to share a lot of things here yet. be patient with me as i am still learning. i did manage to find blogspot where i would love to cross post and also add even more there until i learn wordpress just a little bit better.

Nothing like growing and expanding, learning is always a good thing. http://everydayissunnywhenyousmile.blogspot.com/

oh boy! what did i tell you? nothing like learning and not giving up?

i think i just found the way to add here what i was hoping to share just at the point of giving up i tried one more time. amd it worked~

Never give up Always keep trying Always work towards your goals and keep smiling for your success is everyone’s success. 🙂

Crows leave gifts for 8-year-old girl who feeds them

love this story. especially the lost item found and returned. crows i always thought were bad news due to the corn they pull up, here it appears they aren’t so bad after all. a few had been hanging around just outside my fenced yard last summer and i was a bit worried. the corn never made it either. possibly the heat more than birds. thinking this summer i just may be feeding them too. all the other birds come here and love the sprinkler on really hot days.

World War II dog tag found on Utah Beach, returned to veteran’s family

stories like this make me happy. i like to believe these are messages from heaven sent as reminders to our loved ones still here or a way just to say hi and the best way possible is to help return something they owned long ago from the earth to their loved ones. that is how i see it and so thankful for angels on this earth whom help make little miracles like this happen.

spring is almost here

Every Day is SUnny When You SMile

That, My friends, is my motto. FOr on a cloudy overcast day where there may be no sunshine…a smile can brighten anyone’s day, like

a ray of sunshine. A lonely person with no one to show they care, except for you as they turn and stare when you walk by,

and hopefully smile, to acknowledge they are important enough to share your sunshine with them. I have had people thank me for

offering a simple yet powerful gesture of a smile to brighten their day. Be sure to take a deep breath, exhale, and just smile.

Brain Protein Tied to Alzheimer’s Spotted in Young Adults

as a researcher of many things i find the brain and injuries such as a simple bump on the head, slow driving car crash or any jarring or impact to the head is an injury to the brain that can have long term effects are quite complicated! the alzheimers affect is the scarring in my opinion where an injury has occurred. just my opinion! these sorts of injuries to the brain can lead to sensitivity to light, busy environments, crowds, loud noises, music, etc…people after injury can have extreme sensitivity to textures, and stress and can fatigue easily as their brain processes the same things just takes a lot more focus and work to do the same tasks with all the extra noise their brain can no longer handle which blocks thoughts they attempt to focus on. mulit tasking is not something easily achieved if at all after an injury….these symptoms are often times undiagnosed if ever diagnosed, and are considered to be called post concussive syndrome.
