MISS RIBOET - BAMBOE NDIE LOMBOK SE (BANANAS LELOETJON)/KRONTJONG SLAMET TINGGAL




Now the sound quality of this records is terrible, but then again, this is a record that came out in 1927!!


Miss Riboet was the first huge star of recording in Indonesia and the Malay peninsula. She was the lead actress of the Orion theatrical company, a tooneel troupe which was founded in 1925 in Batavia (Jakarta). In fact, she was so popular that by the time recording engineer Max Birkhahan made this recording in 1926 she already had her own series of “Miss Riboet Records.

If you are interested you can read more about Miss Riboet at this excellent website:
