The National Jukebox

By Jack Brummet, American Music Editor



A fantastic resource for the school, teacher, researcher, writer, student, and blogger is The Library of Congress digital archives.  The LoC has now mounted The National Jukebox, which makes historical sound recordings available to the public free of charge. The Jukebox includes recordings from the amazing collections of the Library of Congress, Packard Campus for Audio Visual Conservation, and other contributing libraries and archives, including an amazing treasure trove of ten thousand old 78 RPM recordings from the R.C.A. Victor catalog, all digitized and available for streaming (but not downloading).  Check it out.
