Well I've looked everywhere for the words and the composer of, a song I heard once called 'Schenectady Calling'. I'm pretty sure it was written by Michael Marra as a tribute to Peerie Willie Johnson, but no joy. I did find two song titles, new to me, that mention the place. One is 'A Suicide in Schenectady' by Fran Landesmann', and the other 'All my Ex's Live in Schenectady' writer untraced. It does seem to inspire odd song titles though.
