Also the first recognizable version was done in 1936 or so. I used to play that one in one of the bands I was in....yeah it was kinda weird.

Can you believe that song had its origins in an old folk song from the Seattle area circa 1880's?

Yeah, Tom is really old. He was just a kid when that first got popular.
He's got a good memory for an old guy.

From his statement, I had to wonder if it was Joe's band that did the first recognizable version... His avatar says it all, eh?! Grampa?

Maybe I come to Ashtabula county and meet you sometime. It'd be a short trip from Lexington, KY, right?
