    Did people really have such nasal, tinny voices back in the day, or did olde timey recording gear not pick up the bass?

      @scribus Probably both.

      @scribus Both, though there are plenty of nasally singers still around today too.

        @northernnarwhal Well, even speech, too. Like the classic newsreel narrator voice.

          @scribus That has more to do with the frequency, I reckon.

      @scribus Old recording devices weren't sensitive to pick up the lower frequencies of bass.
