first sound recording

Thomas Edison and John Kruesi invented the phonograph in 1877. Thomas Edison was so excited about this invention that he whispered the nursery rhyme "Mary Had a Little Lamb" into it. This allowed him to listen to the sentence as many times as he wanted, and he was very happy about it. Later, Emile Berliner invented the gramophone which records sound horizontally on discs instead of vertically on cylinders like the phonograph.

first sound recording

I'm taking you back 156 years ago to the first ever recorded sound. When it was restored in 2008, it gave me chills. It was like traveling through time. This is the phonograph that Thomas Edison discovered 15 years later from the first sound recording, which is the ancestor of modern day gramophones.
