The early days of recorded music were marked by the rise of vinyl records, which emerged as a popular format for listening to music in the late 1800s and continued to evolve throughout the 1900s. With the invention of the phonograph by Thomas Edison in 1877, music enthusiasts had a new way to experience their favorite tunes, and vinyl records quickly became the medium of choice. During this era, artists such as Enrico Caruso, Al Jolson, and Bessie Smith dominated the music scene, with their powerful voices and emotive performances capturing the hearts of listeners worldwide.
The early 1900s saw the rise of jazz and blues, with pioneers like Jelly Roll Morton, W.C. Handy, and Ma Rainey creating a new kind of musical expression that captivated audiences. The 1920s were marked by the dawn of swing music, with Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and Cab Calloway leading the charge. Vinyl records played a crucial role in popularizing these genres, allowing artists to share their unique styles and talents with a wider audience.
The era of vinyl records from the 1900s was also marked by the emergence of iconic record labels such as Victor Records (later RCA Victor) and Columbia Records, which helped shape the sound of American music. The Golden Age of Recording, as it came to be known, saw some of the most influential artists in music history come together with innovative recording techniques and mastering processes to create a lasting legacy that continues to inspire new generations of musicians and music enthusiasts.
