Hi Ray! I dunno...but if we don't turn one up, it will be a cryin' shame. The tune was so popular in the period that I would expect several arrangements. I do like the story that the US troops played it so much (during the Spanish-American War) that the Spaniards thought it was our national anthem. ;-)
