What was she doing there?

If you live your life waiting for confirmation from others you always be disappointed. However, if you live to annoy others....

Well, the problem is that on these old cylinders there is quite a lot of static noise, and then in addition sometimes a sort or repeating thump every time the cylinder rotates. When you then remove the static and thump, you take some of the fullness of the original voice. I do not doubt that those with better equipment than myself would get a better outcome. But it is not easy. They have a recording of both Queen Victoria and Lord Tennyson. And it is very hard to extract something you can be sure is genuine. I hope these Ai services would set up some template for this. It should actually be quite easy, as the noise profiles on all of these are almost identical, and that subtraction process would be much better. It could be very interesting to hear the oldest voices on wax cylinder. I did this because enjoyed the song, probably because I also used to enjoy drinking :) Some people like other things, that's ok...:)

That you don't like the song, I cannot comment on. That is an individual taste. But the original recording was a wax recording, remember that. To get from a wax recording to this is not bad. But I do not know who you are, and you may have much superior skills and resources. I just wanted to mention this wax recording point.

Some day, when you grow up, you too will see naked adult women. In the meantime, you can do research online...I recommend pubmed, base and core, as well as anatomical atlas.

That people start open newssites is good, but if it is not commercially run, the issue of the backer's influence will always be there. I still hope they make it work, but that they make clear these things.

 

This song is actually quite catchy. And it would have been quite popular even today with this baritone.
