So we know there’s still some performers around who recorded 78s, but I would imagine that the chances of any cylinder phonograph recording artists being around are minuscule. They continued until 1929, so it would have to be a child performer. Failing that, who was the last one to survive? From browsing Brian Rust’s music hall discography, the most recent death could have been Jay Laurier, who died in 1969, aged 89. I’d be interested to hear of any cylinder performers who died after that.
