  • 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.

S., Appalachian State University M. A., Appalachian State University Chairperson: Bruce Stewart Otto Wood, a native of Wilkes County, North Carolina, became nationally known during the 1920s for his repetitive flights from the North Carolina State Prison. Wood began his rambling at an early age and spent his childhood years in the coalfields of southern West Virginia. After killing a Greensboro pawnbroker in the fall of 1923, he was sent to the North Carolina State Prison. Between 1924 and 1930, Wood made four escapes from the penitentiary and rose to the status of a criminal celebrity. He wrote his autobiography, Life History of Otto Wood, while incarcerated in 1926. In his Life History, Wood claimed that the poverty and neglect he experienced in childhood formed the roots of his criminal lifestyle.

  • Yank Stewart Charles Willis (“Yank”)
    Yank Stewart Charles Willis (“Yank”) Stewart, Jr., was born February 19, 1906, in Virginia.1 He died October 1, 1985, in Wilmington, North Carolina, thus attaining 79 years. When a young man his nickname was “Willie.” Exactly when and why he obtained the nickname “Yank” is not known. He was a son of Charles Willis Stewart and Susan Beckleheimer, who were married in West Virginia. The following is from a newspaper account of the murder trial of Charles Willis Stewart and C. Elmer Stewart: “He said that he was born in Virginia and lived there until 12 years of age, when he moved to West Virginia, settling later at Oak Hill, in that state. He went to Salem, Virginia, in 1907, and two years later to Cascade, Virginia. Stewart said that he went to Wilmington in October, 1912. His occupation, he said, was carpenter, and he named several places in Wilmington where he had worked. Among them was on the customhouse job, where he worked on the interior. Stewart testified that he was a member of the Carpenters’ union and one time chairman of the Senior Mechanics, The Golden Eagle, Odd Fellows, Junior Mechanics and also the Wilmington Trade Council, of which at one time he was chairman. Until he had been crippled, he said, he was in good standing in all of these organizations. He moved to Brunswick County about seven years ago.”2 Charles Willis Stewart Born: c. 1874 (Virginia) Died: 17 April 1925 (Raleigh, NC) Buried: Bellvue Cemetery Wilmington, NC Residence: 118 Meares Street Wilmington, NC Susan Beckleheimer Born: Died: Oscar Stewart Born: 18 November 1893 Died: 15 April 1915 (California) Buried: National Cemetery Wilmington, NC Anthony Dewitt Stewart Born: c.

  • Conflict and Resistance in the Appalachian Protest Song and the Mexican Corrido Benjamin Duvall-Irwin
    Comparing New World Traditions: Conflict and Resistance in the Appalachian Protest Song and the Mexican Corrido Benjamin Duvall-Irwin Since at least the early 20th century the Appalachian region has been largely perceived in the popular mind as a backward, isolated place. Its people too have been stereotyped as poor whites, just as culturally isolated from modern mainstream America as they are isolated geographically. Appalachian studies scholarship has increasingly challenged this universalist view of a homogenous region by highlighting its diverse economic, ethnic, social, and religious realities and its national and global connections. Folk music, once thought to be a marker of Appalachia’s unique Anglo-Saxon heritage, has been revealed to come from a variety of heterogeneous sources. Thus, Appalachian folksong should be examined in a national and international context. Some scholars have indeed noted parallels between Appalachian balladry and the corrido, or Mexican ballad. While these traditions differ in form, there is much to compare in content. Early parallels were drawn by Americo Paredes himself, the preeminent scholar of the corrido of the U.S.-Mexican borderlands. Recently, others have found parallels in the seemingly misogynist violence in the lyrics of their “love songs.”1 In addition to these areas I suggest a new facet: how the border corrido and ballads of the Appalachian coalfields have been shaped by conflict and function as a means of collective resistance. Conflict has overwhelmingly framed the study of the border corrido and the protest songs of Central Appalachia, but no study has viewed both traditions under this same lens. This essay will begin with a broad comparison of Mexican and Appalachian balladry as New World traditions influenced by Old World balladry, and summarize the historical and quickly growing presence of Mexicans in the Appalachian region.
