  • James Bland,composer of this song, also wrote 'Carry Me Back To Old Virginny,' was one of the best black composers of the 19th century. This song can be found on my CD 'Silver Threads Among The Gold' which is available on iTunes at:itunes.apple.c.... CDs can also be purchased at my own website at: tomroush.us/CD%...

    Just came across this on June 3, 2022. This is the best arrangement I have ever heard. I love the tempo, the instrumentation and the vocals. Thank you so much. I found this b/c I was a little emotional/sentimental b/c my dad's b-day is coming up and I was just reminiscing about my Appalachian family roots from Georgia. He's in heaven now. They are leaving this earth pretty quickly. I miss them all so much and our family reunions we had every year since the early 60's until covid. Finally, after the covid mess we're having another reunion in Cordele. But it will be small, maybe 25. There aren't many left. We used to have 100 or more show up. But the young ones don't want to keep it going. Oh, how I miss those good ole days from the 50's and on.

    Once again...thanks for recteating this traditonal song in so unique a way! I've heard a few versions and also sang a choral arrangement in a choir where I used to sing but yours definitely beats all the existing ones!

    Ecellent Version. My favorite movie scene EVER is the NCO Ball at Ft, Apachie, the Grand March then Henry Fonda with Shirley Temple to Golden Slippers!!!
    Have talked personally to Tom as I did my Master's Thesis on "Stephen Foster and the Rise of Popular Music in America" . Have ALL his CDs. He ranks righ up with Tom Glazer in these songs!!!

    Oddly this is a frequent tune for The Mummers Parade every new years day here in Philadelphia. However, the mummers were very racist and did not allow African Americans in the parade until the Civil rights fight really took hold. I am told however mummers did wear the theatrical no no and strut in "black face". I just find it insulting that they could use his song and forbid/discriminate against him if he wanted to March to his own song. His other work of note is a state song , "My Old Kentucky Home". Just some sad and warped trivia but awful truth

      I will forever associate this classic minstrel song with Golden Grahams cereal because of its use as a commercial jingle when I was a kid. Back then I didn't know that the jingle was an adaptation of an old song.
