Len,

"A Horse Named Bill" was included in Carl Sandburg's ___THE AMERICAN SONGBAG___ (1927) Harcourt, Brace, Jovanavich.

It was on Bob Gibson's first LP for Riverside called __Offbeat Folksongs__

P.S.--- to you all: My absolute favorite word in all of American folk studies has to be, from the song "JOHN HENRY"--------"HAMMER !!! (Now that's a word to be reckoned with (I reckon).) There are so very many implications. And they have such a social conscience--indeed, such a presence that I can hardly stand it---man against the machine & all that crap. And the various virgins---er versions----can actually be numbered like those famous Children's Ballads are. There are so very many favorite words of mine within those scholarly holy pages collected in the fields (?)that I can barely contain myself------AAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!! ("I'll have what she's having.") I just wish you all knew what I know. Those were grand times drinking and carousing and acting like nutsos and hoping we'd turn into Woody. If we could only live through an actual dust storm.

That's another great folk word: DUST
