Rufus and all: Regarding PD burn, here's a relevant Canadian website that evidently represents 8 yrs' work: www.collectionscanada.ca/gramophone/m2-121-e.html
More information: ******************* Library and Archives Canada (LAC) is pleased to announce additions to The Virtual Gramophone website. This project was funded by the Department of Canadian Heritage through its Canadian Culture Online initiative. As a continuation of The Virtual Gramophone's retrospective exploring eminent Canadian musicians and performers, you will find a new essay entitled "Turning Points: A Short History of Sound Recording and Record Players", two new biographies and over 45 podcasts. Also included are a video of an Edison phonograph and, from LAC's collection, a video of a Berliner gramophone. You are invited to visit the site at: www.collectionscanada.ca/gramophone/m2-121-e.html Thanks go to Judy Goodyear, Ken LaGrave, Gilles Leclerc, Richard Green, Gilles St-Laurent Brenda Muir, Susan Globensky and many others who worked on The Virtual Gramophone over the past eight years. Their efforts were instrumental in the success of this project and are much appreciated.

Would it perhaps be preferable to branch these off into two seperate tabs? cheers, Tim _______________________________________________ fc-uk-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.okfn.org/mailman/listinfo/fc-uk-discuss http://www.bbc.co.uk/ This e-mail (and any attachments) is confidential and may contain personal views which are not the views of the BBC unless specifically stated.
