Welte-Mignon Recording Secret Revealed
By Richard Simonton
I just came across this listing for an old record on eBay auction:
"Welte Legacy of Piano Treasures -- Scriabin
performs his own compositions in 1905,
Poushnoff performs circa 1920. LP Recorded
Treasures Label 681 Stereo 19?? M/M Sealed!
I guess they hook up this machine to the piano
and it figures out from notes on an Edison Cylinder
and recreates the music!"
The truth has come to light and the controversy can at last be laid
to rest!

[ read the text inside the sealed package! ;) -- Robbie
