Recordings are available online in the Library of Congress presentation titled, "Emile Berliner and the Birth of the Recording Industry," where it is noted that for the ghost dance recordings: "It is unlikely that Mooney carted the heavy and cumbersome gramophone machine around the Great Plains recording the chants there. More likely is that Mooney recorded the chants himself in the Berliner studio in Washington and that Sousa and Gaisberg transcribed the music."
