My C-250's stomach is still growling. I think it has a tapeworm. The only proper course of action is to keep feeding it!
By the way, the Tennesee Happy Boys is a pseudonym that Harry Reser used on Edison records.

The Tennesee Happy Boys were Arthur Hall and Bud Kennedy. Harry Reser used many pseudonyms, but this wasn't one of them.

Arthur Fields & His Assassinators was the band, not the vocals.

Does that mean the Red Hot Jazz site is wrong? The Tennesssee Happy Boys records are listed under Harry Reser. For instance, check out the song "Show me the way to go home," by the Tennessee Happy Boys at the Harry Reser page below. www.redhotjazz.com/hreserbands.htmlSee also the songs "Paddlin' Madeline home," "By the light of the stars," and "It must be love."

Interesting. Info is always only as accurate as it's source. One of the references that I have on hand is Edison Diamond Disc Re-Creations, Records & Artists 1910-1929, and lists The Tennessee Happy Boys as a pseudonym for Arthur Hall, John Ryan & Bud Kennedy, and Reiser is listed as the backup orchestra. This is a website that I have used in the past for band info. www.nfo.net/usa/r3.html#HReserBill |

I have a Model 250 and it says "Official Laboratory Model" Anyone know what that means? It is a floor model and has a full drawer of various records down below the turn table. It also has a box of needles but I am having trouble changing the old needle. Is there a trick to this? ;P

To the new owner
Your diamond disc machine is a laboratory model which was the best of the models for sound using the largest horn at the time. You machine does not change needles if it has the Edison Reproducer which is wide and lowered to the record with the handle in the front. If you have an attachment it will have an upright reproducer on a sort of swivel affair, that would take a new needle every record or so. The diamond is permanent and must have a whole new stylus installed in order to replace it. They last a long time. Never play Edison records that are Diamond Disc type thick records with a steel needle it will ruin them. Check out some of the machines on the site for photos of the right arm for the edison records.
