Google is celebrating the 145th birthday of one of the first Indian singers to record on vinyl.

Gauhar Jaan got her first recording done on Nov. 11, 1902, in a converted hotel room in Calcutta, now Kolkata. She earned the distinction after she was chosen for the task by Frederick William Gaisberg, the first recording engineer of the famous Gramaphone Company—now better known as Saregama India.
