Sandy,I don't think I ever mentioned that I used Gordon Bok's traditional P.D. (I hope) tune from "Johnny Todd" when I wrote "That's The Ticket". To me, it was so obvious I had done that that I never got around to mentioning it in the notes to our LP. As an old highschool teacher used to tell me, "Thieme, you're just a slovenly gump." Well, I never did attend much to details. But I suspect that if my lrics had made a large amount of cash for me instead of the zero, zilch, nada amount it has generated, I suspect my name would be in a thread similar to this one. As it stands, I never did protect the song. Just didn't bother. It was, "too much monkey business for me to be involved in." -- to borrow a line from Chuck Berry.
