I was thrilled to find the "Cylinder preservation and digitzation project" from the University of California, which allows you to search by song name, singer, or even Edison cylinder number. cylinders.library.ucsb.edu/search.phpfor those of you who aren't familiar with it. It is a great help to see if you like a song before buying it. My question, is if there is anything like this for Edison diamond dics also? |

No. Unfortunately not as vast as this site and even they are limited to what is donated and the quality of the cylinder. Bill |

Ok, its a great idea.. I must admit as usual to my lack of knowledge of how computer sites work.. I looked up American Symphony Orchestra cylinders and selected one I hadn't heard of. It brought it up in the search, but I don't see any way to "hear" it? Any suggestions?

Larry,
When you call up a list for example you should see a number in front of each selection, click on it-it's a link to the sound files.
Regards,
J.
