Nauck's Vintage Records Broadcast
 
April 15, April 16 and April 22, April 23



Radio Dismuke is pleased to announce the thirty-fifth semi-annual Nauck's Vintage Records Broadcast hosted by Kurt Nauck of Nauck's Vintage Records, the world's largest and most prestigious auction house of rare and collectible vintage records.  Nauck's has partnered with Radio Dismuke to share with the public some of the rare and exceptional recordings that pass through their doors before ultimately finding homes in various private collections.

For these special broadcasts, Kurt generously makes all of the nearly 10,000 vintage records in his current auction available for the program.  During the broadcast, Radio Dismuke will depart from its strictly 1920s and 1930s popular music and jazz format and play recordings from just about every musical genre imaginable from the dawn of commercial recorded sound in the 1890s through the end of the 78 rpm era in the late 1950s.  Many of the records in the auction are extremely rare and the vast majority have never been reissued in modern formats.

One of the things that is special about the broadcast is that it will provide listeners a rare opportunity to hear very early cylinder records played through Kurt's Archeophone -  a modern, electrical playback device designed specifically for the reproduction and preservation of vintage cylinder records.   Late 19th century wax cylinder records are especially fascinating because very frequently they are the last surviving copies of the recorded performance.

In addition to vintage cylinders and conventional 78 rpm discs, the broadcast will feature other vintage formats such as Edison diamond discs, radio transcription discs, picture records and cardboard Hit of the Week records.  Radio Dismuke listeners have the opportunity to hear recordings from a wide variety of musical genres ranging from jazz and dance band music to classical, opera, blues, country and even early rock and roll.

The program will play in continuous rotation throughout the the weekends of April 15/April 16 and again on April 22/April 23.   

The Nauck broadcasts provide a unique opportunity to hear some extremely rare and historic recordings  - a good number of which have not been available to a public audience in many decades.  It is another example of how Internet radio is able to provide to a worldwide audience highly specialized, quality programming that traditional media outlets are simply not able or willing to take on.
