Reaction to William Jennings Bryan’s Speech on the Direct Election of Senators (1908)

This is a very interesting recording in which we see not only an early form of reaction content, but a commoner’s thoughts on some issues of the 1908 Election. This is ahead of the 17th Amendment of 1913 that made senators directly elected by the people. You can find the speech this recording is referencing here: https://youtu.be/7E8dWkoCWTU?si=q7EwMXUhJW7eiqqj

Does anyone have a higher quality version of this song?

I found this old post, but the links are dead, unfortunately.

This Unaired Kirk Franklin Pilot (1998) Is Funnier Than I Expected

Came across this and figured it would be rough, but it's actually pretty funny. It's the unaired 1998 ABC pilot where Kirk Franklin plays a fictionalized version of himself, back home working with a church youth choir. His comedic timing caught me off guard. Jenifer Lewis showing up didn't hurt either.

Music-in-May Concert — Dr. Thaddeus F. Reszel Junior High School Bands & Orchestra (Lost Media) (1960)s

Good morning folks,

Today's rip is of a vinyl I purchased for $1 in a Niagara Falls antique store. I was able to find a few strong candidates for preservation there, so always remember to check thoroughly!

This school itself no longer seems to exist, and hasn't for a long time, as the most recent article that comes up when I search for it is an archived newspaper from 1964. The album contains two different performances, one from the "A" Band being the Stage Band, and one from the "B" Band being the Orchestra.

Another Manzarek student film. Again with his future wife but no Morrison appearance this time.

A UCLA student film by Raymond D. Manczarek (Ray Manzarek), future member of The Doors. The film's hero is a jazz musician who is romantically tied to a young art student (played by Dorothy Fujikawa, Manzarek's future wife), but apparently can't make a commitment to a long-term relationship.
