    Thanks a lovely record. When I was young I had some older friends who had lots of Walter Midgley records and loved to hear them

    I rate him highly and have just transferred quite a few more of his recordings which will gradually appear in coming months. Thank you very much for your appreciation.

    A lovely recording, right at the end of the 78’s so excellent quality. 1953 for the first LP’s I think?

    RCA did in fact commercially produce the first vinyl records in 1930 but they were not begin to become mainstream until the early nineteen-fifties as you suggest. The shellac technology was indeed well-developed and pretty good by 1953. Many thanks.
