Barney Google - Played on an Edison A-250 Disc Phonograph - Billy Jones and Ernie Hare 1923

[@darwinsmith4354]

I listened to several other versions on KZbin, but this is the one I used to listen to on my grandparents' wind-up phonograph. I would come into their basement and play this record first. It was my favorite recording. That was 60-some years ago. Thanks for posting this version. I also remember reading the comic strip in the St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

I remember this jam better then I probably should. I watched the cartoon quite a bit. Shit I'm only 97 years old....thanks for bringing back some very nice memories.

You’re very fortunate to have such a fine recording and an exceptional gramophone. I’d say that this particular machine was a good quality, high end device. Thank you for posting this video…Mac

I remember my Dad singing this song(at least the refrain)before I ever saw Barney Google in a comic strip.(He rode Spark Plug up and visited Snuffy Smith!)
