ANGELINA BAKER / ANGELINE THE BAKER

Published by Stephen Foster in 1850, this song relates the heartbreak of slaves who lost loved ones through death or sale. Interestingly, up to 1850, the lyrics of minstrel songs were one of the few places (other than Abolitionist literature) where sympathetic interpretations of the plight of slaves could be found. The second movement is the “old time” fiddle tune Angeline the Baker, evolved from the original melody but more common to the early 20th century.

You shouldn't care if your music offends knee-jerk liberal types, for two reasons: 1. The kinds of people who would take offense to your music are the kinds of people who would seldom ever listen to your music anyway. 2. There's nothing you can say, no apologies you can make that will appease them. They are convinced that your music is r*cist or offensive or whatever, and nothing will change their minds, nor will they ever not be offended by it. So ignore them. We here know that your music is awesome, and that's all that matters. Keep doing what you love, 2nd South Carolina. Godspeed.

And that's just the way I learned it - by listening - to a band called 'Kenny Hall and the Sweets Mill String Band' (avail fm iTunes). They called it "AngeLINE THE Baker', and just repeated the name over and over for the verses. We reasoned that once the original minstrel tune retreated back into the 'hollers and valleys' of the Ozarks, Blueridge, and Appalachian mountains with the Confederate veterans that learnt and loved them at close of the war, they simply kept the melody and forgot the words. We decided to combine the two - minstrel and old-time - and use the combination as a 'teaching tool' during our performances (besides - it's a really KICKASS treatment... and fun to play). Good luck to you in your effort and thanks for the comment and kind word !!!

Yes, but not with Ranger Matt. We played at the Eternal Flame monument 3 times during the 150th years, I think. Don't really remember who invited us, but we were kind of a 'fixture' around Gettysburg from 1996 (when the band's leader, Joe Ewers, moved into an 1827 log farm house there that had been the HQ for Albert Jenkins, during the battle, thus giving the band claim to a 'Gettysburg Address' for 14 years) to 2010. We played many events at the battlefield, including the installation of the last two statues to be erected in the park - the Longstreet Memorial, and the 11th Mississippi monument, besides playing at other locations for the muster.
