[Jnmcda0]

Stephen Foster lived in Cincinnati in 1848 when he wrote this song. He worked at his brother's steamship shop which can be seen in this early daguerreotype picture taken in September 1848:

If you zoom in, you can see the Foster shop (the one with the white awning, next door to the Athearn & Hibbero company) directly behind the Embassy steamboat.

however i couldn't help but notice that the female strings player is wearing jeans with pink hair, a blatant slap to bigoted gender customs of the gold rush days. god bless rights activist's and the change of society for the better!

[polarbearchampion]

The other night my doorbell played this tune when I sent a text message from my phone. Even stranger, the tune wasn't set as the door chime. It was one of 12 options. Susan was my sister's name - she died in an accident as a child. The text was part of an exchange of messages about something really important in my life. I believe my sister was guiding me. Bless her soul. This song will be so important in my life now.

[lossas]

[captainfairfield]

Would love to hear you guys perform Stephen Foster's "The Glendy Burk". Great job on "Oh! Susanna".

[balladofamerica]

Thanks for writing, Mr. K. There has been an extended period of enlightenment in the United States, marked by turning points such as the end of slavery and the Civil Rights Act. Many of us living in the 21st century tend to eliminate some references in folk songs from another age; references that in this age are generally deemed offensive to civil society and appeal only to the ignorant and hateful. Thanks again.

[madmaoriuk]

Whilst I kinda agree don't you think that it creates a myth that people weren't racist? By forgetting the evil we let the past get away with its wrongs?

[balladofamerica]

I agree that there is definitely historical value to maintaining lyrics such as those in question. I am not an advocate of whitewashing the past. But it's up to the singer to decide which lyrics he/she chooses to sing. For my purposes, I didn't feel there was a need to include words that would offend. Besides, I think there's enough lingering racism that we're not in any immediate danger of forgetting the evils of the past. Thanks.

[madmaoriuk]

It turns out that from a little bit of research I did on the song on wikipedia that it was Foster himself that found the lyric offensive and he re-wrote it himself!

[RockEqualsZeppelin]

xD, this is such a typical hillbilly song, I love it, i just learned it to play on a guitar, I like this old folk music!!!

[BudgieFeatures]

Great song. I love it.

[SCOTTYX2]
