In the mid-1950s, The Shanty Boys were a mainstay on Oscar Brand's live radio program Folksong Festival on WNYC. I was a regular listener. One song I think Lionel wrote was Get Out the Gatkes (long underwear), a silly song which I still sing every winter! Once my little sister Grace Said she itched just every place.... Get out the gatkes. Get out the gatkes. Get out the longest pair. Some call them longjohns. Some call them (snuggies?) As long as they're warm Who cares? I met Lionel when he performed solo at a resort in the Catskills. 50+ years later, this remains a fond memory. Steve Shapiro
