When I first started collecting, I bought a 2 minute Edison cylinder record 
with a large batch in an auction.

I only got to listen to it twice.  I dropped it and it shattered.  I was sick 
because it was one of my favorites.  Unfortunately, I didn't keep lists of my 
cylinders in those days and couldn't remember the name of the song.  I would 
like to try and figure out what it was and obtain another copy.  (I won't drop 
this one).

It is a guy singing about a woman that he's met and is saying what a nice time 
he had.  His friends all exclaim "Me too!".  This pattern follows throughout 
the song.

Does anyone know the song that I'm talking about and the name of it?

been lucky enough to
get to see numerous collections all over the country, and it's very
interesting to see how folks address the question of how to best
display...and in some cases, how to best use...their machines. here's
a list of types of displays i've seen. if you recognize yourself,
don't worry, it might not be you!

- crammed into a corner of the basement; some things in cabinets or
shelves, but then others piled up in front or on top

- entire basement devoted to phonos, as designed when house was built

- entire house filled with phonos; navigate rooms by walking the
aisles between them; cylinder cabinets, filled, in bathrooms; some
clothing storage of owner in lowboy consoles

- multiple phonos in every room of house, but room for beds and chairs

- one floor for "her" collectibles; one floor for "his" phonos and
records - and all with tinfoil on top to protect against the tropical
birds flying freely inside

- house as normal, except for one very large room packed solidly and
haphazardly and precariously with phono memorabilia and machines of all
descriptions

- one tiny room, packed artfully with the rarest of machines

- two upstairs rooms, unwalkable but filled with fantastic records and
machines

- an entire separate building: top floor = collection storage/display;
bottom floor = workshop

- machines sprinkled throughout house as part of decor, with one room
holding the greatest concentration

- some machines in house, including a shelf filled with Columbia Qs and
Eagles in breakfast nook, with attached 2-car garage devoted to phonos

- machines stored throughout basement rooms, not displayed but
accessible to be shown

- large metal farm building, unheated and no A/C, with floor filled
with consoles and a wall of metal shelves filled with tabletops. each
console also had a tabletop model on top of it.
