About l877. the earliest Edison phonographs were the cylinder type. Disc recordings (hence the term Disk Jockey) were invented by Emil Berliner much later and he sold the patents to Columbia Records. We still have both Columbia records and CBS. Mr. Berliner was a US citizen who also developed the Microphone and related devices for recording purposes.
