1906: When Things Was Lookin' Bright (Phonographic Yearbook

1906: When Things Was Lookin' Bright (Phonographic Yearbook Series)

The U.S. suffered its worst natural catastrophe to date when a massive earthquake hit San Francisco in April 1906. What the shaking earth did not destroy, ravaging fires in the quake's aftermath did. Coming at a time when dangerous irregularities in the country's packing plants were uncovered in Upton Sinclair's landmark book, The Jungle, it was obvious that the American infrastructure was unconsolidated and unprepared for significant disruptions. Archeophone's Phonographic Yearbook, 1906: "When Things Was Lookin' Bright," shines a light on these events and provides a 27-selection soundtrack to the historical moment.
This is Archeophone's 45th CD and twelfth volume in our Phonographic Yearbook series. Popular artists include Billy Murray, Bert Williams, Ada Jones, Henry Burr, Harry Tally, Corinne Morgan and the Haydn Quartet. Some of the all-time biggest American hits are here, including "Wait 'Till the Sun Shines, Nellie," "Love Me and the World Is Mine," "Nobody," and "The Grand Old Rag."
