Paul Laurence Dunbar is amazing, and the influence of his songwriting collaborators and colleagues (John Rosamond Johnson, Will Marion Cook, James Weldon Johnson, Bob Cole) is enormous and hugely under-acknowledged.

Thanks for your comment...Greetings, Woody Johnson!<br /><br />Thanks for your comment. I'm adding a hyperlink in this comment to your site <a href="http://woodyjohnson.ca/" rel="nofollow">http://woodyjohnson.ca/</a><br /><br />I favorited your site and intend to spend time there. I'm also interested in old songs, including old children's songs particularly those songs from Black cultures. However, unlike you I don't sing them, but I'm interested in the songs, rhymes, chants, cheers for their aesthetic values and also as a wannabe folklorist. <br /><br />If you have any YouTube videos, please share them within me via my email address that is given in my summary statement.<br /><br />Btw, I launched this blog in August of 2011 so it's not that old. However, my Cocojams cultural blog is going on 12 years old. <br /><br />Best wishes!Azizi Powellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14963772326145910073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5893219718076521675.post-71660672303290743772013-01-21T21:18:56.566-05:002013-01-21T21:18:56.566-05:00Hi...

Anyway, I, too, have composed music for the poetry of Mr Dunbar, and I have given him credit, because I believe is is one of America's great writers. I am a singer/songwriter and I was immediately struck by the musicality of his poetry. You can listen to many of these compositions (I have put music to poems by others, as well, such as George Marion McClellan and James Edwin Campbell) at <br />www.woodyjohnson.ca<br /><br />I thank you again for sharing this information about Dunbar's poetry and I look forward to more of your opinions and research...<br /><br />Woody Johnson,<br />Ottawa, CanadaWoody Johnsonhttp://www.woodyjohnson.canoreply@blogger.com
