Notes

5-inch aluminium disc privately recorded at Voice Records Ltd, Oxford Circus, London - circa 1936.

The A-side mentions the Junior League of Prayer, who apparently were based in Leicester Square, and a prayer is read out.

The B-side is a scripted advert (read by the same man) for the same prayer league, who, he says, pray for peace every night.

Each side is less than a minute in length.

Comments and Reviews

mister_tmg 16th Sep 2020		A BBC radio programme about these records is available to listen to here.
TopPopper 28th Sep 2016		I have to say, when I first obtained this disc, I checked this very site for any other entries and didn't find any. The reason of course was that I searched for "Voice Records" rather than just Voice. I think others would tend to do that too - and if they were to just search for Voice, then Voice Records would show up anyway. So what I'm trying to say is, good change!
xiphophilos 28th Sep 2016		What you did was also completely reasonable, Graham. Main thing is, we now have all three of these discs under the same heading. Hopefully, future submissions will end up there too. ;-)
Graham7 27th Sep 2016		That seems reasonable. I was just trying to tidy up what seemed like a duplicate label addition of the one I found ('Voice') when I added my disc(s)
xiphophilos 27th Sep 2016		I've edited the label to say "Voice Records" because that's what's on the label. If we kept it as "Voice", there would probably be others who'd enter it, like you, TopPopper, as "Voice Records." The "Records" part of the label title is not significantly smaller than "Voice", unlike, for example, with Decca (full company name: Decca Records, Inc.) where it's absolutely clear that DECCA is the label title.
TopPopper 26th Sep 2016		I thought it was better with "records" - it's part of the name really, unlike, say "Parlophone Records" or "Decca Records". The gimmick is that you can record your own voice onto disc, hence you can make a "voice record". I'd never heard of them before - pleased to see a couple of others on the site.
Graham7 25th Sep 2016		I've removed "Records" from the label name, and you now will see my entry and one other linked via the label. No reason we can't have multiple entries for these - each must have their own story.
TopPopper 24th Sep 2016		Hope this is OK to stay on the site. It's a curious little record I found today - aluminium playing surface! I managed to find out a little via Google, like here.
