The 1900's --- Music hath charm to soothe the savage beast or Make it RAGTIME!

I'M AWFUL GLAD I MET YOU sung by Ada Jones and Billy Murray would be yet another hit in 1909 for the pair: . And that same year Van Brunt & Miss Florede would also make a hit of it.
 
Harold Jarvis would have a sentimental hit of BEAUTIFUL ISLE OF SOMEWHERE in 1909 and you may imagine it was forgotten and lost to the cobwebs of time: Fortunately, every now and again something happens and what was lost and forgotten is re discovered (an excerpt broadcast from Radio Heartland):

The airplane or as it was once more properly called "aeroplane" was a new novelty. In 1909 the Haydn Quartet along with Harry Macdonough would record a popular hit song surround this marvelous new invention for VICTOR Records with the song titled UP, UP, UP IN MY AEROPLANE:

Walter Van Brunt would make a recording hit of WHEN I DREAM IN THE GLOAMING OF YOU
George Madden would also record this song for ALBANY INDESTRUCTIBLE Cylinder Records the same year (1909):
 
Arthur Collins would have a racial hit with THAT's A PLENTY: This is being played on an Edison 1909 FIRESIDE Cylinder Phonograph.
 
DIXIE LAND, I LOVE YOU ---- would be another VICTOR Record selling hit for Billy Murray in 1909:
 
And so we kiss the 1900-1909 good-bye. We will see what 1910 will bring.
