Over at The List Universe, there’s a list of incredible recordings including a castrated adult male or castatro if you will from 1904 (creepy), the highest recorded sung note (ear piercing), the worst singer (who was so bad she sold out Carnegie Hall ), Florence Nightingale, Lord Haw Haw, an upsetting Russian exorcism (Oh now you’re going to click on it), the first recording of human voices and the mythical chinese whisper that is the Sounds of Hell.
