Just saw that video and my wife barely endured the 12 minutes of early 1900’s piano music (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)
I enjoyed it. Curious why nobody went to a steel wheel until the mid 20’s. Seems trivial in hindsight and what we know today, but was it aesthetics, cost, manufacturing, or simply nobody came up with the idea (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
