Turn Off Your Light Mr. Moon Man
by Nora Bayes and Jack Norworth


Public Domain 4U says: This lovely duet by Nora Bayes and Jack Norworth has found it's way to archive.org from the original 78 RPM vinyl record from 1911, and the lush tones of their harmonies and accompaniment survive the trip beautifully. Three cheers for whoever encoded this one. Great music from yer grandpappy's time.
