The sound of decades-old gramophone records found inside a Nazi U-boat has been captured for the first-ever time.
Dubbed the “shipwreckords,” the records were discovered in a submarine that was sunk by the RAF in 1945.
Kyle May, from social enterprise Big Heritage, said it was bizarre to hear the tunes echo through Western Approaches in Liverpool.
“It was an eerie experience. I was fussing about setting up the cameras, audio gear etc but when the music started, all of that just melted away and we stood there transfixed.”
