Nowadays we can switch on a CD player and enjoy our favourite music. We never stop to think what an amazing thing it is to capture sound on a disc. In just over a century, we have come a long way, from the old gramophone to hi-tech remote-controlled digital stereo systems.
In 1877 Thomas Alva Edison amazed everyone by reciting the nursery rhyme ‘Mary had a Little Lamb’ into the recording funnel of his experimental machine. He called his invention the phonograph. This machine recorded sound by marking the surface of a wax cylinder. So the first record wasn’t flat but was shaped like a cylinder. It was a simple device, but it proved that sound could be recorded and played back.
This was a very creative time in history. As a sound-recording device, the phonograph was quickly overshadowed by more sophisticated devices.

1 Tomas Edison was the first person who could record a soundtrack.

3 The first phonograph was very heavy.
