Movie of that name with the song innit. From 1937, right in the middle of the Great Beef Expansion down south of the boarder who was found to have expired with gaseous wind conturbatulaion in his gut. The boom itself was heard all the way to Chicago and the aftershocks in Tallahassee. Dave the Blast himself was never heard from again, poor boy, but of, yes.

Not folk history but it coulda been!
