Clarke	Folk songs appropriate for medical students (149* d)	RE: Folk songs sung by medical students and doctor	07 May 98
From: cgdaniels@mindspring.com (Clarke Daniels) Subject: Medical Folk Music Hi, I am a cardiologist who has recently retired. I am very interested in collecting "medical folk songs" similar to those which I learned as a medical student in the 1950s. These were songs that were sung at parties or in the local bar on weekends. Examples that appear in the Digital Tradition are "Ballad of Lydia Pinkham," "Dr. Freud", and "Coming Down with Old VD." I am particularly interested in songs known to medical students and doctors, which they remember from their student days. Information about when and where it was heard would be very helpful also. Even if you don't have direct information but could refer me to another source, I would greatly appreciate it. Clarke Daniels MD
