In early 2013 the Stiff Gins approached the NFSA, asking about the possibility of recording a wax cylinder. Nardi Simpson and Kaleena Briggs had come across the cylinder recordings made by Tasmanian Aboriginal woman Fanny Cochrane Smith in the early years of last century and they were intrigued by the idea of making such a recording as part of the developmental work for a new show. _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.org
