Hi Fiddle DD,

Yep - Jimmie Rodgers, the "Yodelling Brakeman" certainly sang "All around the watertank" recorded as one of his "Blue Yodels" (1928-29), I think.

I seem to recall a couple of extra verses 2nd Banana, weren't there?

Alas, my record player is dead just now, so I can't check the discs.

I'm off to town for a week tomorrow, and hope to pick up a new (2nd hand) tt. Will pick up this trace when I get home and post the rest, if no-one else has.

Cheers _ Sam
