Re: [ARSCLIST] European Archive Foundation
Actually,you could hear such a recording,soon after it
was discovered,if it were.The Edison National
Historical Site,has authorized WFMU to broadcast all
thier recordings for years.They call the show "Thomas
Edison's Attic",and it is broad/web/pod casted every
other week.WFMU has shows on thier site going back,to
2000,or 2001.
