I appreciate your recognition of George Johnson, and his contribution. He was fortunate to have been used to further develop musical content at the time of the new recording machines and technology.
I adore your video a bunch!!! 😍😍😍 I really liked how you recognized a phonographic singer!! I can't seem to find any documentaries about them. Till today. Thank You ☺️ And I will love to see more!! Like Billy Murray or Ada Jones! Hayden Quartet and American Quartet. Aurthur Collins. You name it!!! Btw, I enjoy all variety of music,but the ones in the late 1800's until the 50's are treasure!!! The first music ever recorded! That's why I enjoy your channel! You "ressurect" the music back again! I hope more people hear your posts and like it. This music is worth many!!
Thank you so very much Celeste! Honestly I was quite surprised to see that there has been very little discussion about George W. Johnson, so I guess I thought to myself "If nobody else is going to talk about him then I guess I will," lol. I would be glad to make more videos like this one, covering some of the musicians that you have mentioned. The 1890s-1950s range is a good time period to discuss, because you are right that many of these musicians have sadly been forgotten about. More content coming in the future! Thanks again!
@@NathanielJordon It's my pleasure!! And thanks. I'm really glad you took the opportunity to make the video before someone else did, or if any video will be made at all!!! Glad it's been made. Now people can check it out ☺️ Oh! And I love your new upload btw!! Top 20 songs from 1890 - 1899. I heard many beautiful new melodies!! I especially liked "Hello Ma Baby", Arthur Collins. That one was actually one of the first vintage songs I've heard! I can't wait for your next upload!! Keep up your work, I'll be loving it ♥️♥️
No entiendo mucho el inglés pero si rescató de que George w Johnson es uno de los máximos representantes y referentes de la música de los años 1890's. Es de mi interés conocer la música de hace más de un siglo, aunque tengo 19 años me agradan esas canciones. Saludos desde el Perú!
George J Gaskin, George W Johnson and Haydn Quartet were the best in 1890s and 1900s. More songs about George Gaskin, Billy Murray and Haydn Quartet please
Why isn’t no one mentioned that George w. Johnson wrote and sang The Whistling Coon and the Laughing Coon. He’s really a pioneer of the Coon Songs like Ernest Hogan
Thanks for this informative video of a true pioneer of recording. So many collectors are drawn to the real stars, Like Caruso, Tetrazzini etc, but they joined the industry as at was beginning to take off. In the really early days, there would be natural scepticism of the new technology & doubt as to its commercial value. This, for me, is where true pioneers are heroes & should not be forgotten.
You are very welcome! It is sad to see that many of the true pioneers like Johnson and others (like George Gaskin and Arthur Collins) are talked about very little nowadays. I feel like for many people, they may know Enrico Caruso and Al Jolson, but these acts came at least a decade later. Going back even further in time is truly fascinating, and it is something I would like to continue exploring.
Good video, man. Never knew about him and I’m a music junkie. I’m just now getting my feet wet in late 19th-early 20th century recordings. Definitely earned a new sub. I Appreciate it.
@@NathanielJordon haha real recognizes real baby. History grad here myself. Public history is incredibly underrepresented which isn't what many people would think but sadly it is true. That can't be good. Anyways, you are doing the Lord's work buddy way to go.
@@DrWongburger I love it! Glad to see another person who studied history. I've come to realize that many people (including myself in the past) seem most interested in federal history while disregarding the history of their community. Thank you for your encouraging content! This is what keeps me researching!
I’d be interested to know what the cylinders were sold for per unit, as well as the later 78’s? There’s something incredibly sinister about this reality: a former slave being paid pennies to sing nearly endless renditions of absolutely racist material about his race while making white publishers rich. When put into context that the first American theatrical pastime was Minstrels, the first popular full length silent movie was Birth of a Nation, and first talkie was Jazz Singer, it really boggles the mind. Definitely great to see some study on the man, kudos for that!
Well put together video, I commend you. Now I’m curious, I know the second and third songs that were played, but I don’t know what the first one was. I was wondering if you could tell me the title.
@@NathanielJordon the reason why you didn't get copyright strikes is that: After the artist's death, the artist's pieces have 70 more years left of copyright, and after that 70 years, those pieces are no longer copyrighted.

Thanks for this tremendous bit of both history and trivia!
This video needs more attention

GOOD JOB! THANK YOU

How’d u find this song on the wax cylinder
😍👌🏻 I will translate it into Arabic . I love george w johnson
This was very well put together, do you have a background in public history perchance? If not consider it, cause this is pretty much it.
Thank you DrWongBurger! I was a political science minor at my Alma Mater and have taken a few public history courses.

A Good Bio of a 👍 Guy 👋
George W Johnson, the legendary K pop artist
Lmao he was the very first

i don't get it
@@overpricedhealthcare there is no deeper meaning, just shitposting
@@nickjordon what does it have to do with kpop though
The history is nice but the ragtime could have been more faint.
Thank you kind sir… please continue… Katt Williams! Charleston White! Jason Whitlock! President Trump! 2024 Mental Illness will be address!
And some people think it is still this racist in the USA, SMH!
