No. 9144, "When the Evening Breeze is Sighing Home, Sweet Home," by the Edison Male Quartette, is a charming descriptive ballad given in quartette form, effectively arranged, and sung with orchestra accompaniment with the same blending of voices and artistic style that have made the Records of this quartette so popular.   The words of the refrain follow: And the breezes still are sighing as they sighed that summer's eve,   When through the world I started forth to roam; And it seems that I can hear the Mother's voice to me so dear,   When the evening breeze is sighing "Home, Sweet Home." — October 1905 Edison Phonograph Monthly [announcing the November records]
