Greetings!

I decided to publish a page on my Cocojams cultural blog that focuses on the early examples of Puddin Tane. The hyperlink to that page is
http://cocojams.com/content/early-examples-childrens-rhyme-puddin-tane "Early Examples Of The Children's Rhyme "Puddin Tane".

Most of that blog page features examples from this Mudcat discussion thread. Citations and a hyperlink to this page is given on that Cocojams page.

I've extracted those entries from this discussion thread which I started in 2007 and presented those examples in chronological order by the rhyme's date as a means of making those examples & the information about them easier to read.

My thanks to all those whose examples & comments are re-posted on that cocojams page.

Also, click this link to my cultural blog http://pancocojams.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-alley-kats-puddin-tain-sound-file.html for a post that features a sound file and the lyrics of the 1962 doo wop song "Puddin Tain" by the Alley Kats and a sound file of the 1962 cover of that song by The Kit Kats.

Best wishes!
