[Magdalen] On a lighter (musical) note; is "archival" in nature.

Mosaic Records, of Stamford, CT, is holding on for dear life, in terms of its mission of issuing limited edition CD box sets (which look amazingly like the Columbia box LP sets of old), and one of their recent releases is that of Teddy Wilson, of piano fame.  Here are three short videos from their Sunday Jazz Gazette, representing the initial digital transfer of rare discs.  Pay special attention to the metal masters playing in "reverse", ie, the stylus is specific to playing, not a groove, but the opposite.  And I think there's at least a couple of us here who've held a tone arm still while it traverses through a problem area.
