I'm personally waiting for some 500 BC music.

It was a well told folk tale in rural Louisiana, first noted in 1893, but the popular bluegrass tune it inspired was not recorded until 1906.

The decade of the 1890's was seminal in the development of America's popular music. After two decades of rather uninspiring music based on European art music, classical and liturgical music, the "*** 90's" brought America to a doorway that would ultimately lead to "Tin Pan Alley" and the dominance of American popular music around the world. Join us as we look at the earliest origins of the Tin Pan Alley style and the emergence of popular music in America. Many of the more familiar songs from this period are seen in a number of our articles. Songs such as, Daisy Bell, In the Good Old Summer Time and The Sidewalks of New York (East Side, West Side) (all in Scorch Format) typified what we know of "*** 90's" songs. Perhaps the most seminal of all the songs that defined the 90's was Charles K. Harris' After the Ball from 1892. After the Ball captured the imagination of the American public, and that of the rest of the world too with this sad story of a man who mistakes a brother's kiss on his lover for that of another suitor. He rejects her and never sees her again without benefit of confronting her about it. The result is a lifetime of lost love only to find on her death that it was her brother. The song was one of many "tear jerker's" that emerged during this period of romance and emotional song.
