Record deck, ca 1932, by Univolt
Univolt record deck, ca. 1932.
CAUTION - IF YOU FIND AN 85-YEAR-OLD ELECTRIC THING LIKE THIS, DON'T JUST PLUG IT IN TO SEE IF IT WORKS! 240 VOLTS AC CAN BE LETHAL! I HAVE CAREFULLY CHECKED IT OUT FIRST. TAKE ADVICE FROM SUITABLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
Some years ago, we got one of these and made a series of YT videos about it. However, it had the wrong arm, which had been botched onto it, almost certainly in antiquity.
Happily, another one, complete and in fine condition, recently came into our possession, and is described and demonstrated in this video.
The video quality on our early YT uploads is very poor, so this new & cleaner one will supersede the others.
Hoping that you will find it of interest.
There are one or two minor errors of description, which should be self-evident; please overlook these. Also, I use the word ‘Graunchy’ to describe the 78 record played at the end. This isn’t quite the right word; what I meant was, the Dorsey Brothers don’t treat ‘My Kinda Love’ as a gentle piece – quite the contrary. The introduction comes in like a rock-crusher grinding into a pile of large stones, Tommy Dorsey’s blistering trumpet in the forefront! 8^)
