•I'm so grateful to Jim Miller for the links to such treasure trove [191014 MMDigest]. Here's hoping that the Arden & Ohman Vitaphone film will reappear. The three 1923 Eubie Blake Phonofilms are wonderful. At one point Blake says to Sissle, "This ain't no movie, this is the talkies!" Which understa...

•I've looked over the audio that Ben Roth linked in his post [230516 MMDigest]: > https://youtu.be/8hcdoIYJcFk > Tchaikovsky - Francesca da Rimini for two pianos - > Ludmila Berlinskaia & Arthur Ancelle I don't believe that it is going to convert well at all, and it might be unrecognizable.

•Re: H-M's Player Piano Holiday Music Box I checked out the link for H-M's "Player Piano Holiday Music Box (plays paper tape)" for $99, and lo and behold, it's the exact same one I purchased in Target last Christmas season for between $50-60! Then again, H-M is not exactly known for their discount p...

•Hello all. I just have followed up the link for the auction of the Bovey estate. They really are selling everything, as evidenced by the selection of items.

•Hello MMDers, it is me -- the lost link to the Knapp Barrel Organ Works -- wishing you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year for I will be in France for the holidays.

•If anyone missed it, here is a link that works as of this time: http://discover.npr.org/features/feature.jhtml?wfId=878091 I don't know how often they change their links, so if it does not work you can go to npr.org and do a search on keyword: "self-tuning piano" (no quotes) John W Miller Saint Pau...

•Andy, when you put the pointer on a link you want to save, hold the mouse button down (instead of clicking) and a window should pop up with several selections.

•While I do not condone the vigilante activism promoted in the following link, I find it interesting that even the escrow services can be compromised.

•Hi Robbie, I've looked at the "offensive" link. All I see here is an organ builder's supply web site. Maybe I'm not seeing the forest through the trees, but I fail to see anything offensive about the web site or the e-mail. [ The offensive element is the domain, not the web site (Kimber-Allen).
