Street Musicians:
There is a microphone bump at ~0:20, but nothing to be concerned about... just watch it in future recordings.
~0:43 stumble "the act... the act of 1863"
Aah Margate: a frequent destination for day trips when I was a child and I loved going to the amusement fair at Ramsgate (about 5 miles from Margate) on our way home. Happy days!

I know there is no need to pre-claim a section here, but just a quick note to let you know I found an interesting account of Alexander Graham Bell's involvement with the invention of the phonograph. Should come in just around 15:00 in duration. I'll work to get it posted soon.

Sounds good. If it is just over the 15:00, I have some discretion ("I'm in charge; I wear the hat" to quote The Aristocats... which was my father's catchphrase )rrobinson84 wrote: ↑March 19th, 2018, 2:42 pm I know there is no need to pre-claim a section here, but just a quick note to let you know I found an interesting account of Alexander Graham Bell's involvement with the invention of the phonograph.

Thank you, Robert. Unfortunately, it is Librivox policy to not employ sound effects. Could you upload a 'clean' version? Alternatively, you can upload directly to Archive yourself.rrobinson84 wrote: ↑March 22nd, 2018, 3:05 pm Good evening!
