Description of the audio clip

Thomas Alva Edison remembers his first recording on the phonograph from 1877. He recorded his memory in 1927, on the occasion of its 50th anniversary celebration.

The first words I spoke in the original phonograph. A little piece of practical poetry. Mary had a little lamb. Its fleece was white as snow. And everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go.
