Thread Name: Origins: Lizzy Borden / Fall River Hoedown
Subject: RE: Origin: Fall River Hoedown
Michael Brown wrote it for a musical revue, New Faces of 1952. It's included in the movie, New Faces, that was made out of the revue in 1954. Brown recorded it on his album, Alarums and Excursions, 1962 (I think). And many people know it from the Chad Mitchell Trio recording. On the Brown album and the Trio album, it was called Lizzie Borden. [I'm writing all this from memory, a little fact-checking would not be out of order.]

All of the above are available on Youtube.
