Back to Warrnambool celebrations were an important event on the social calendar and were run over a number of years in the town. Some of the events held over the week included processions, sports Carnivals, concerts, card playing, Church services and local tourist events.Reginald Stoneham the composer of the song , "Back to Warrnambool,"was born in 1879 and died March 1942. He was a popular accompanist and recording artist in the early part of the 20th century. Other songs which he wrote include All for Australia, The drover, Bendigo for the weekly Times, Mildura and Home to Ballaraat.He also penned music under the name Alberto Algrati which were his middle names.This recording is a valuable piece of Warrnambool's history as it provides an original version of the song as it was sung at the time and also as a piece of Reg Stonehams work.
