Subject: Tune Req: 'Here Comes Woody and Lefty Lou'
I know the lyrics to Woody Guthrie's original radio theme song are available online (though I couldn't find anything on Mudcat), but I haven't been able to find anything about the music. As I recall, a recording was made in the 1930's with Woody and Maxine "Lefty Lou" Crissman and still exists; the lyrics I've seen were transcribed from this.
Does anyone know if the recording was ever released? Can anybody provide any information at all about the music?
