Yes, they were able to put songs "on wax" but it was way more primitive technology (in the mid-20s electrical-based recordings get introduced and the sound quality goes way up on those). And it wasn't vinyl, but shellac disks (or were wax cylinders also still in use by the 10s? I have no clue). And like the cool cat above me said, if you're into the right kinds of music there is plenty of talk about this period of music. Personally I haven't heard a ton of recorded music from before the 20s, but it's out there and I'm sure some of it is great.
For me, I love me some classic female blues, so here is some Bessie Smith.
