Listen to a collection of 78rpm records and cylinder recordings released in the early 20th century. These recordings were contributed to the Archive by users through the Open Source Audio collection. Also the Internet Archive has digitized many. Here's the homepage https://archive.org/details/78rpm And an example you might enjoy on John Lee Williamson (Sonny Boy II) https://archive.org/details/TheRealSonnyBoyWilliamsonjohnLeeWilliamson Thanks to John H for sharing

Big Al Blake shared this article with me and I though you would enjoy it.
