• Manufacturer: CD • Manufacturer Part Number: CDBY 41337 • SKU: 6900883 • UPC: 634479303920 • Shipping: $0.96 • Description: The Road to Richmond is my 5th volume of authentic songs from the time of the Civil War. As with the others, songs are a mix of north and south, of war themes and general popular music, of serious and comic songs. Also similar is the musical viewpoint of the collection; it is recorded not as professional musicians of the day, nor as a modern folk performance of old time songs. The musical viewpoint here is that of the common soldier, or a small group of them. So the performances are somewhat rustic, but the instruments and the styles of performance are correct for the time period. The 'milieu' is the camp fire, not the concert hall. The Road to Richmond accommodates the many loose ends I felt I had. A few should have been on other CD's, but somehow didn't get there before they filled up. A chunk of this collection reflects my efforts in learning the 'proper' knock-down, or 'banjo style,' used exclusively on this CD. My previous efforts were a mix of styles, all period correct, but not text-book proper. For the most part, this volume contains songs that fit important criteria besides all being authentic: I enjoy playing them, and have never recorded them. Notes on some of the songs: Marching Along, The Last Man of Beaufort, and The Seventh: These are all from Frank Moore's Songs of the Soldier's, published in 1864. Many other songs from this and my other volumes can be found there as well. Much of this book was songs sent to Mr. Moore by the soldiers themselves, with comments to the effect that these were popular with the boys. Many are regimental songs, soldier-written songs adapted to popular tunes of the day. In the case of The Seventh, the given air, Gilla Machree, has eluded me for a few years now. In the tradition of the soldiers themselves, I found an alternate, Yankee Doodle, that fit the meter of the words perfectly, and used it. This tune was often used for such songs. The opening recitation for Last Man is exactly as it was written in the book, probably published in a newspaper when it first appeared. Tramp Tramp Tramp is the third of George Root's trilogy of all-time great songs from this war. The others, Battle Cry of Freedom and Just Before the Battle, Mother are in earlier volumes. America is just a great old patriotic song that seems to have been fading in recent years. We'll Fight For Uncle Sam and Young America and Ould Ireland are broadside songs found in the Library of Congress collection. The given airs are Whiskey In The Jar and Darling Ould Stick, which are used in these versions. Jeanie belonged on the Night March CD as a song known to be sung by the soldiers of the 140th NY, but she somehow got overlooked. So that is remedied here, and the list of 140th songs is now complete. The balance of the first grouping of songs are all personal favorites of mine. Dundee is the first verse of Bonnie Dundee, on which Riding A Raid is based. J.E.B. Stuart was one of my favorite Confederate generals, and near the top of the list of... |
