The famous “Taps”, which has been called one of the most hauntingly beautiful melodies ever written, was composed by Daniel Butterfield in July of 1862—and that was the only song he ever wrote! Butterfield was a soldier and reached the rank of major general before retiring to a career as a businessman. Despite the success of “Taps". Butterfield never tried to write another song.
