Here is one of the most popular singing Comedy Duos from the first two decades of the 20th Century, Arthur Collins and Byron Harlan singing, "The Aba Daba Honeymoon" composed by Fields and Donovan from 1914. The Gramophone is a Victor Type III from 1914. Most people recall the modern day version of the song done by Debbie Reynolds and Carleton Carpenter in the late 1940's, but here is the original version from 1914 complete with the cleverly done Jungle and Ape sound effects.

@Leadfang Yes, ebay. That Victor iii you see in the photo will run you around $900. You can buy an Edison CYLINDER player MUCH cheaper, but it will be much less versatile. One of those will run around $350 for a Standard that will play 4 minute cylinders. The cylinder version of this song is better in my view.13 years назад

I am rather curious, you see, I am highly fascinated by antiques, phonographs/gramophones in particular. I live in rural Alabama, where would you think I could find a gramophone? I've search all of the antique shops, no luck. Perhaps ebay?13 years назад

Actually, I see that they also recorded it on Edison Blue Amberol in the same year. That's probably what I've been hearing. I think the Victor is better.14 years назад

Great post, as usual. There seem to be 2 Collins and Harlan versions of this song, both referred to as 1914 recordings. In the other, there are many differences, for example the line "Chimp I love you, too" is not spoken, but sung. Overall, it does not sound quite as bright as this one. I'm trying to track down the recording history... any ideas?Похожие клипы
