Audio Recordings of Mechanical Music
By Brian Smith

I would like to see a 2-CD volume of recordings from John Mottoros
of his excellent Seeburg KT Special, and I would like to see a
comprehensive recording of a Seeburg F with violin pipes.  There
have never been any recordings of a Seeburg F.  As Don Shenbarger
explained, it is very difficult to record these instruments with
recorders with an automatic level control.

Let's ask Jasper Sanfilippo about some recordings from all
those instruments that have never been archived, like the 'Marcola
orchestrion' and all of those Seeburg KTs and KT specials, and all
of those Seeburg H's and North Tonawanda Pianolins (which have never
been extensively recorded).
