>Can anyone remmember Carl Sandburg doing Jon Johnson on WGN's midnight >special new years eve radio show.. Any ideas on how to get a copy of >Sandburg doing it. Seems like I remmember him singin "he is lumberjack >by trade".
It was on an LP we had when I was a kid. But I don't suppose I've heard it since 1964 or so.
Google says it's also on a 1972 album Flat Rock Ballads (Columbia AML 5339)
Here it is on ebay if you want to pay a lot: http://cgi.ebay.com/CARL-SANDBURG-flat-rock-ballads-LP-59-M-6-eye-ML-5339_W0QQitemZ350117472170QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMusic_on_Vinyl
