Work: Musical Fantasy

A glimpse of the past while listening to the future.

Despite the mix of jazz, pop, and electronic sounds featured in Fantasy Music’s “Musical Fantasy,” the disc and jewel case design showcased an early 1900’s Hiawatha Talking Machine Phonograph playing a Brunswick 2000 record of Mindin’ My Bus’ness (circa 1924).

Every musician can recall that one song which laid the foundation for their inspiration and passion to create music. For Fantasy Music's Armed D. Green, it came from the Hiawatha Talking Machine, a family heirloom that still works today.
