Interesting article.........I just posted to one of those type song threads, "Wreck of the Shenandoah," recorded by Vernon Dalhart about the 1925 crash of the 680 foot dirigible U.S.S. Shenandoah in Appalachian foothills of Noble County, Ohio.

I think we all kinda' love a good disaster song for whatever reason and researching them against the actual event is often entertaining and even humorous. Many authors have taken FAR MORE than artistic license and then as it passes down it can bear almost no rememblance to the truth. I like our "Origins" style threads that we've gotten into. Something extra with the lyrics!
