Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Junco Partner (Dr. John)
Just as a footnote, the songwriting credit to "Bob Shad" is a crock. Shad was a record producer in the 1950s who had no hand in writing this song, which has been floating around in New Orleans since way before the 1950s. I don't know whether or not Shad has the copyright on it - I doubt it - but he sure as h#ll didn't write it.
