Music by Telephone
By Robbie Rhodes

[ Quote forwarded from Marty Roenigk: ]

  "An industry rivaling the motion picture business can be created when
  some genius perfects a means supplying telephone subscribers with all
  kinds of music from a brass band down to a violin concert..."

  -- Hugo Gernsbach, 1916

 [ Gernsbach evidently had no faith in the fledgling experiments
 [ to marry the telephone with the wireless...!   -- Robbie
