Edison with the second model of his phonograph in Mathew Brady's studio in Washington, D.C. in April 1878 (public domain)
It's the 147th anniversary of Thomas Edison's patent on the phonograph. That led to the record player and our love affair with records. Let's mark the occasion with songs about records. We'll have a record party.
