Innit?
Found this. I knew this, it's just been a long time since I thought of it. _________________ Audiodef.com

I have probably 100 78 RPM Shellac recordings from the early to mid 1900's - one of the oldest I can date is a recording of an American propaganda song that talks about kicking the Kaiser - I guess that would put it around 1917 or so. _________________ www.sdiy.org/rfeng

Now that's an oldie!
It'd be funny if it sounded like Red Foreman. "How about I kick your Kaiser in the keister?" _________________ Audiodef.com
