This seems like an argument against something I didn't say in the comment you replied to. Maybe I misunderstood you.

  There's at least a plausible interpretation of your earlier comment that the attempt was futile or without merits. The OP makes clear that this was the only viable way of extracting information. 1 >>> 0. Also, as a sufficiently early recording (anything before the mid-1940s), the medium would have been shellac or wax rather than vinyl. Shellac especially is immensely fragile and prone to shatter when handling.

    Your interpretation was incorrect.

      Your expression was unclear. I'm not telling you what you meant. I'm telling you what I heard, and, in reponse to your implied question, why I'd responded as I had.
