  • 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,

  • “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.

The ‘Alley’ in the 1890s began the practice of publishing songs (with verse and chorus) and marketing them for the whole nation, not just restricted to a small area or ethnic group. During the Civil War many Irish emigrants joined the Union army and a number of Irish ballads were beginning to appear. Even the famous Dan Emmett, the composer of the song ‘Dixie’ was an Irish American.

  • Riverside Label Discography
    Discography of the Riverside Label The Riverside label was established in 1953 by traditional jazz enthusiasts Bill Grauer and Orrin Keepnews in New York City. Originally Grauer and Keepnews intended to reissue classic jazz that they purchased from long defunct labels. Later the label recorded jazz, folk, comedy, spoken word, sound effects, children’s and gospel. Shortly after starting the Riverside label, Grauer went to Richmond Indiana, to see Harry Gennett Jr. to try to purchase the recordings of the Gennett label. The Gennett Record label was formed in 1918 as a division of the Starr Piano Company in Richmond Indiana. In the early 20’s, the label started recording the early jazz bands that were performing in Chicago. Gennett made the first recordings of Ferd “Jellyroll” Morton, King Oliver’s Creole Jazz Band with Louis Armstrong and the Wolverines with Bix Beiderecke. The first recording of “Stardust” was made by its author Hoagy Carmichael in the Gennett Richmond studio The Gennett label had ceased operation in 1932, but many of the historic metal recording plates were still stored in Richmond. Grauer was able to purchase all of the remaining plates for $2000. Grauer began a massive reissue campaign, releasing much of the Gennett material on long playing albums for the first time. Later, Grauer obtained masters from other early jazz and blues labels, including Paramount, Circle, and QRS, and reissued that material. Although the early catalog of Riverside releases contained mostly purchased material, Riverside started recording jazz sessions on its own, including Thelonious Monk, Randy Weston, Wes Montgomery and Cannonball Adderley.
