Not My Victrola

From the early Twentieth Century, we are being treated to one of the most popular comedy songs produced during the acoustical recording era. Victrolaman shares his copy of the baritone Arthur Collins performing 'The Preacher and the Bear.'  My interest in old records exposed me to this song long ago, and it was a treat to hear it performed live by Professor Farquar at Old Threshers in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa.  The professor has it on one of his CD's, and I listen to his interpretation on a regular basis.
