A collection of music from the 1920's. I collected this together to act as a background to a 1920's murder mystery scenario. These songs are all available in collections elsewhere on archive.org. I've just put them together, levelated them, added a tiny bass boost and a little bit of compression. Many thanks to those avid collectors who had made them available for me.
