Short story:

Art Gillham, known as the Whispering Pianist, records You May Be Lonesome for Columbia Records in the USA. One of his own compositions, it makes recording history as the first recording using the new Western Electric electrical recording system to be commercially released. The new Viva-tonal records made by this process will set a benchmark in tone and clarity unequalled during the 78 era.
