Yay! Children's records!

My regular reader will yawn when I mention vintage sound files, as they are a bit of an obsession with me. So imagine my delight at the launch of Kiddie Records Weekly, a year-long project that celebrates blah, blah, blah... let the website explain...

"For the entire 2005 year, Basic Hip Digital Oddio will be featuring weekly stories and songs from the golden age of children's records, a period which ran from the mid 1940s into the early 1950s. This era produced a wealth of classics, headed by Capitol's Record-Readers and the RCA Victor Little Nipper series. Each one of these recordings has been carefully transferred from the original 78s (plus a few 45s) and encoded to MP3 format for you to download and enjoy."

Now, they're not archiving the MP3s past the week they're featured, so make the most of it.

Can't wait for Rusty , me.
