Subject: RE: Carl Sandburg From: GUEST,1958 concert Date: 17 Jan 03 - 02:11 PM I am not sure what possessed Oak Park (IL) High to invite Mr. Sandburg to address us proto-rockers, but he came to the assembly and got up on the stage with his guitar and talked and sang for an hour. Some knew about him - nobody could have guessed the "great folk scare" was coming - one of those in attendance, besides me, was Erik Jacobsen, who went on to produce the Loving Spoonful records. That was the same year that the Old Town School of Folk Music started in Oak Park. Maybe Mr. Sandburg had wider influence in what we do know than he is usually given.

Subject: RE: Carl Sandburg From: Stefan Wirz Date: 17 Jan 03 - 01:33 PM meanwhile found pictures of the following books and added them to my CS discography at http://www.wirz.de/music/sandburg.htm Carl Sandburg: The American Songbag. A collection of 280 songs from all regions of the United States Harcourt, Brace and Co., New York, 1927, 1970, 1990 and Carl Sandburg's New American Songbag New York Broadcast Music Co. 1950 (with 60% new songs not in the first American Songbag) |
Subject: RE: Carl Sandburg From: GUEST,Q Date: 15 Jan 03 - 07:47 PM "Carl Sandburg's New American Songbag" was published and copyright by Broadcast Music, Inc., NY, 1950. There is a little note on the back of the title page, "Copyright 1927, by Harcourt, Brace and Company, Inc." This was the date of the main volume. There are 59 lyrics, quite a few of them already posted to Mudcat, as well as a number posted in slightly different form. |
Subject: RE: Carl Sandburg From: Mark Ross Date: 15 Jan 03 - 07:05 PM There was a 2nd AMERICAN SONGBAG, much thinner and a different format published in the late '40's I believe. If I ever get my books out of storage, I will post the songs. I think W. Guthrie used to refer to the first one as CARL SONGBURG'S AMERICAN SANDBAG. Mark Ross |
Subject: RE: Carl Sandburg From: EBarnacle1 Date: 15 Jan 03 - 01:01 AM I believe it was the only one released but there are several good bio's of him, including "Old Troubadour" by Gregory d'Alessio, which chronicles his music partying in NYC from 1948 to 1967. |
Subject: RE: Carl Sandburg From: Joe Offer Date: 14 Jan 03 - 11:53 PM Was American Songbag (1927) Sandburg's only collection of songs? I thought I read in the Forum about a second volume - but I sure can't find anything to verify that. Oh, Jean, we would sure like to hear that story.... -Joe Offer- |
Subject: RE: Carl Sandburg From: kytrad (Jean Ritchie) Date: 14 Jan 03 - 05:17 PM Have an old copy of CARL SANDBURG SONGBOOK somewhere...one of my sons when small referred to it as, CARL SONGBAG BURGBOOK! George and I visited him on his goat farm in Flat Rock (NC) shortly after we were married. And that's another story... Jean |
Subject: RE: Carl Sandburg From: dick greenhaus Date: 13 Jan 03 - 10:53 PM Lyrichord CD LYR 6003 "The Great Carl Sandburg" is, as far as I know, the only one currently in print (CD). You can, of course, buy it at CAMSCO Music 900/548-FOLK (3655) |
Subject: RE: Carl Sandburg From: Amos Date: 13 Jan 03 - 10:49 PM Stefan: Beautiful work, and a public service. You have reminded me how uch I revered the old sot, really -- he hit me right between the eyes, figuratively speaking, and I only hope his spirit stays alove and in use for a long time. A |
Subject: RE: Carl Sandburg From: GUEST,Bill Kennedy Date: 13 Jan 03 - 02:58 PM thanks, Stefan, nicely done! may have some additions later, but it looks fairly complete |
Subject: Carl Sandburg From: Stefan Wirz Date: 13 Jan 03 - 12:49 PM found it hard to believe that there shouldn't exist an (American made) decent Carl Sandberg discography - so I handcrafted me one of my own at http://www.wirz.de/music/sandburg.htm and I'm almost sure you Mudcatters have lots of additions to hand ;-) |
