 According to John Bolig's victor Black Label Discography, 18000/19000 Series, the Violin on these sides is Louis Raderman. The guitar Is Carson J. Robison. Robison, it turns out, is also the real identity of composer Maggie Andrews.

Bolig cites a Talking Machine World article to the effect that this disc was withdrawn by Victor only weeks after its release due to protests that it was profiting from the Shenandoah disaster. Apparently, there was no such reaction to the Floyd Collins side, which was re-issued later the same month on Victor 19821.

The Shenandoah was a US Navy Dirigible. It was caught in turbulence from a thunderstorm on a flight over Ohio and may have been pushed above its upper altitude limit. The gas bags ruptured and the ship broke apart. Fourteen of its crew fell to their deaths. Feelings may have been running high because thousands of souvenir seekers swarmed the sites where the wreckage fell before authorities arrived and stripped the wreck of just about everything they could carry, including critical evidence of why the ship crashed. At least one of the property owners charged admission. It was widely believed that the souvenir seekers had even stripped the bodies of the dead crewmen of their personal belongings, although this was ultimately denied by the authorities. The crash happened on September 2, so all of this was still extremely current when the record came out.
