Anchors Aweigh 1929

There already exists a version of "Anchors Aweigh" at FS (see File:AnchorsAweigh.ogg). However, we already have at least one song with multiple versions at FS (see File:Sousa's Band - Stars and Stripes Forever.ogg and File:USMC stars stripes forever.ogg). This song is the fight song of the United States Naval Academy, which makes it fairly important. The file adds significantly to the following articles:

• "Anchors Aweigh"
• United States Naval Academy
• Charles A. Zimmerman

• Oppose I think that this is an example of something that is not high fidelity. Zginder 2011-04-27T06:57Z (UTC)
• Support Rather different than the way it's played now, which gives it historical interest, since this song is so iconic to the U.S. Navy. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 13:04, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
• Support Uhhh Zginder... Hi-fi equipment began to be used post-WWII and for a recording of its age its quality is quite good, the notes and sung parts can be clearly discerned. —James ^{(Talk • Contribs)} • 5:55pm • 07:55, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
  • I know that it may be good for its age, but does the recording itself show something that can not be replicated today with modern recording? Short of that it should not be promoted. Zginder 2011-05-06T05:02Z (UTC)
