Cindy,
Prior to my awakening of Kryl, I had a couple of recordings that I
didn't pay any attention to. Then I discovered his connection to my home
town of Crawfordsville, Indiana, listened to his records in earnest, and
discovered his genius. My collection of Kryl recordings is growing. I am
encouraging Richard Martin and Meagan Hennessey of Archeophone Records [
http://www.archeophone.com ] to digitize my collection and that of others
to produce a Bohumir Kryl Special Edition CD ( They are the perfect choice
to create the compilation ). I highly recommend that everyone send them an
E-Mail asking to purchase their upcoming Bohumir Kryl CD - and mean it. He
is one of the most remarkable performers I have ever heard, and I come from
an IU School of Music background. I am hard pressed to find anyone to match
his virtuosity in the upcoming Bohumir Kryl Project performance. (See the
October / November In The Groove Magazine for details)
Thanks,
Tim

Subject: [Phono-L] Reason for my interest in Bohumir Kryl
Tim
I don't know if you were able to add to your collection of Bohumir Kryl. I
had never even heard of him before today as I am cleaning out old items from
a relative's home. Tucked away in a box probably since the 1930s is Edison
Blue Amberol Record # 2054 which I notice you have in your collection. Tell
me, do you have any CD recordings of his works? I would sure be interested
in hearing his work.
