The 120th anniversary of Deutsche Grammophon led to an initiative illuminating the very beginning of the recording industry – the legendary Shellac Era. Historically located between ca. 1897 and the 1930s, the Shellac Era is a fascinating epoch of pioneering artists, courageous producers, smart technicians and engineers, and truly a Golden Age of unprecedented musical innovation. The Golden Age of Shellac, available as a 1-CD Digipack and e-Album, presents the most culturally important of the rediscovered shellac tracks.
