Thanks, Esther. You've spurred me to bung it in, though stiff competition already it seems.
Peripheral to the theme, but always liked Beachcomber's ( J.B. Morton) An Old Gramophone Record
On the revolving disc her topmost note
Pierced the loud music with a maniac yell,
As though a tiger had her by the throat.
Il faut souffrir pour être Edison-Bell.
