>In the book Caruso Records by well known Caruso authority
>John R. Bolig, he writes that the most interesting thing
>about the film My Cousin is that when Caruso performd Vesti
>la giubba from I Pagliacci "it very closely matches his 1907
>recording of the aria. When the film and the recording are
>coordinated, one can almost sense that this was done on
>purpose."

>Mr. Bolig also points out that My Cousin was released in the
>U.S. during the major influenza epidemic of 1918, and that
>being the case was not a commercial success, people having
>been advised not to congregate until the epidemic had
>subsided.

>Any rate, will have to give the DVD and the 1907 recording a
