1862 Battle Cry Of Freedom Civil War Played On Edison Opera Phonograph

Описание к видео 1862 Battle Cry Of Freedom Civil War Played On Edison Opera Phonograph

Here is the beloved 1862 Civil War song, "Battle Cry Of Freedom" played on one of my 1911 Edison Opera Phonographs. The song was written in 1862 by George Frederick Root to rally the Union soldiers. The song became so incredibly popular that a modified version was created to rally the Confederate cause. Abraham Lincoln was so inspired by the song that he used it in his 1864 campaign for Presidential re-election. I hope that you enjoy this version of the song recorded on US Everlasting cylinder. In my opinion, this particular version is likely closest to the actual original performance of the song and is much better portrayed here than on Edison. Thanks for stopping in for a visit.
