''For the blues pianist, see Little Johnny Jones (pianist)
''Little Johnny Jones'' is a musical by George M. Cohan. The show introduced Cohan's tunes "Give My Regards to Broadway" and "The Yankee Doodle Boy." The "Yankee Doodle" character was inspired by real-life Hall of Fame jockey Tod Sloan.
==Background==
The show was Cohan's first full-length musical. A famous American jockey, Tod Sloan, had gone to England in 1903 to ride in the Derby for King Edward VII of England. This gave Cohan the idea for the story. The musical is patriotic in tone and contains a number of quips aimed at European targets, such as, "You think I'd marry an heiress and live off her money? What do you take me for? An Englishman?" and, "French pastry ain't worth 30¢ compared to American apple pie." In ''Little Johnny Jones'' Cohan introduced some of the dance steps and comedy features for which he would become famous.〔(Information about Cohan and the show )〕
This musical is also credited as being the first American Musical, along "with ''The Black Crook'', ''Evangeline'', ''Show Boat''" ... or any number of other works."〔Everett, William A. and Laird, Paul R. ''The Cambridge Companion to the Musical''. Cambridge University Press, 2008. ISBN 0-521-86238-8. p. 3〕 (''The Black Crook'' (1866) is considered a prototype of the modern musical in that its popular songs and dances are interspersed throughout a unifying play and performed by the actors.〔Sheridan, Morley. Spread A Little Happiness, New York: Thames and Hudson, 1987. p. 15〕)
