1907 - A famous Civil War song, When Johnny Comes Marching Home-Sung by Frank C Stanley & Henry Burr

One of the more popular songs of the American Civil War. It was first published in 1863 by the famous band leader Patrick Sarsfield Gilmore of Boston, but he used the pseudonym Louis Lambert. This recording made 42 years after the end of the Civil War is more in the style of the day with cheers from the troops. Since we are using pseudonym's here, the recording artists on this record were William Stanley Grimsted, who used the name Frank C Stanley and others. The other performer was Harry McClaskey, who used the name Henry Burr, among many others. Here is a little info on Gilmore at the time of the Civil War from the Library of Congress. ...Gilmore led a number of bands in the Boston area, including Patrick Gilmore's Band. At the beginning of the Civil War, in September 1861, the band enlisted as a group in the Union Army and was attached to the 24th Massachusetts Infantry. Gilmore's band served both as musicians and stretcher bearers at such horrific battles as Bull Run, Antietam, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg and Richmond. Gilmore was posted to occupied New Orleans, Louisiana in 1863 and, as Grand Master of the Union Army, ordered to reorganize the state military bands. It was at this time that he claimed to have composed the words and music to "When Johnny Comes Marching Home..... Gilmore's song would be very popular in the north and south. After the war it had a revival in the Spanish American War. It even had a string of popularity in United Kingdom. In their case Johnny was replaced with Tommy. Lastly, Gilmore's name would be used for years, mainly on Columbia records by various bands. But Gilmore himself died in 1892.
