  • Kansas History and Folksong
    KANSAS HISTORY AND FOLKSONG by Bill and Mary Koch America's musical heritage is a strange mixture, but from its songs, and especially its folksongs, we can relive our historical past. As our ter­ ritories developed and new states came into the union, songs were made and sung which purported to tell of life and conditions in the new state. Kansas was a crucial area a hundred years ago, and the whole nation's at­ tention was directed toward her and toward what might transpire on these prairies. The Civil War slowed down the westward movement, but only temporarily, for a new hope had already been fired in the hearts of people, especially those from the old northwest and from the eastern seaboard. Walt Whitman, America's great poet of democratic principles, real­ ized early in the 19th century the part that music would play in this west­ ward movement and the settlement of America's great heartland. He praised the west and foresaw what Frederick Jackson Turner, the eminent historian, was to say later about the west\vard movement-that the natural processes of settlement in succeeding new areas afforded the opportunity to slough off undesirable, non-democratic principles and institutions. Both Turner and Whitman were romanticists; that well-known phrase, "The American Dream," meaning the idea of the freedom of opportunity to all, is the theme of much of their literary output. Only a vast public domain and free land could spark this dream to a reality, so men would actually point their covered wagons westward with kids, dogs, hogs, and all,

  • Vanguard Label Discography Was Compiled Using Our Record Collections, Schwann Catalogs from 1953 to 1982, a Phono-Log from 1963, and Various Other Sources
    Discography Of The Vanguard Label Vanguard Records was established in New York City in 1947. It was owned by Maynard and Seymour Solomon. The label released classical, folk, international, jazz, pop, spoken word, rhythm and blues and blues. Vanguard had a subsidiary called Bach Guild that released classical music. The Solomon brothers started the company with a loan of $10,000 from their family and rented a small office on 80 East 11th Street. The label was started just as the 33 1/3 RPM LP was just gaining popularity and Vanguard concentrated on LP’s. Vanguard commissioned recordings of five Bach Cantatas and those were the first releases on the label. As the long play market expanded Vanguard moved into other fields of music besides classical. The famed producer John Hammond (Discoverer of Robert Johnson, Bruce Springsteen Billie Holiday, Bob Dylan and Aretha Franklin) came in to supervise a jazz series called Jazz Showcase. The Solomon brothers’ politics was left leaning and many of the artists on Vanguard were black-listed by the House Un-American Activities Committive. Vanguard ignored the black-list of performers and had success with Cisco Houston, Paul Robeson and the Weavers. The Weavers were so successful that Vanguard moved more and more into the popular field. Folk music became the main focus of the label and the home of Joan Baez, Ian and Sylvia, Rooftop Singers, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, Doc Watson, Country Joe and the Fish and many others. During the 1950’s and early 1960’s, a folk festival was held each year in Newport Rhode Island and Vanguard recorded and issued albums from the those events.

  • “Old Favourites” : a Selective Index
    “OLD FAVOURITES” : A SELECTIVE INDEX EDITH FOWKE Anyone who has collected Folk songs in Canada has probably run across singers who have scrapbooks or clippings oF songs From the “Old Favourites” section oF the Family Herald and Weekly Star, a rural newspaper published in Montreal. This Feature oF the popular weekly ran From 1895 to 1968, and served as a source and exchange For songs throughout Canada. The introduction in the issue oF November 19,1895, said: “In this column o F the Family Herald there will be published From week to week songs, poems, and ballads chosen From the store-house oF English poetry. Each selection will be a Famous one; and, where occasion For it exists, will be accompanied by explanatory notes oF the text, a sketch oF the author’s liFe, and a history oF the poem. Readers oF the Family Herald are advised to preserve these poems. By doing so they will secure at no cost to themselves a very complete collection oF the best English poetry.” The columns did indeed contain a great deal oF poetry, although much oF it was by minor poets in spite oF the promise that “each selection will be a Famous one,” and the explanatory notes tended to disappear. OF more interest to us was the proposal “to provide For readers the words oF songs which are out oF print or are diFFicult to obtain in ordinary song collections.” The note that “Many oF our songs are not the work oF a single hand but are the growth oF time, having received improvements From various hands until they reached their Final Form” suggested that the editor was thinking oF traditional songs, although the reFerence to a “Final Form” indicates a False conception oF the nature oF Folk songs.
