In my case, it's The Complete Recordings by Robert Johnson 2CD collection These were done around or in 1937.

But i have stuff By Django Reinhardt, which must be older, they just have no date on them.

there's a chance that I have some classical music that's even older, I'd have to check the dates.

I guess the oldest recording on that would be Scott Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag taken from a piano roll made in 1919 by Scott Joplin. http://www.discogs.com/Various-Smith...release/969390

He's one of my FAVORITE violinists ever. Here's a video of him playing one of my FAVORITE pieces ever (Paganini's Caprice No. 24).. DOUBLE SWEET! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPcnGrie__M

This might sound impossible - but what it is, is a stereo audio recording of a piano roll made by the great composer Gustav Mahler. So it was a paper system for "recording" what was played by the pianist exactly - inflections, dynamics etc.
It sounds great by the way - Hi Fi quality sound !
