The eleventh release in our Archeophone Archives series presents 30 Blue Amberol cylinders released by Edison in September 1913. Of particular interest in this volume are several popular ragtime selections, including Fred Van Eps' performance of "Alexander’s Ragtime Band." All of the transfers are done from the best copies of these cylinders to archival quality standards and expertly restored.
