GUEST,M Dixon ADD: Larry Gorman's Songs (33) Folklore: Larry Gorman's Songs 23 Apr 21


Here is a list of the 30 "full-length" songs Edward D. Sandy Ives attributes to Northeast North American songwriter Larry Gorman (1846-1917) in his 1964 book "The Man Who Made The Songs." Although lots of information about Gorman is available online I have yet to see a list of his works. Gorman wrote more than these 30 and many of his tunes survive in fragment form or even just reputation (with no tune or lyric recalled).

1. The Shan Van Vogh
2. Bachelor's Hall
3. The Horse's Confession
4. The Gull Decoy
5. Michael Riley/Mick Riley
6. The Baptists
7. Michael McElroy
8. Michael O'Brien
9. Dame Bruin
10. The Winter of '73
11. Morris Ellsworth
12. The Scow On Cowden Shore
13. Mary Mahoney
14. Young Billy Crane
15. Barren Town/Byrontown
16. Donahue's Spree
17. Roderick McDonald
18. The Union River Drivers
19. Bill Watts
20. The Champion of Moose Hill
21. Myles Everett More
22. The Good Old State Of Maine
23. Tomah Stream
24. The Workman
25. The Old Pod Auger Days
26. The Hoboes Of Maine
