Cabin Party Time |
Song written in the Universal years, 1956-1960 |
|
Al Capone
Blue Myrtle Brown-Town Barracks Crier Of The Town Darling Stranger Drop In On My Dreams Going Out With Friends Hands In Pocket I Can't Understand It I Knew You When I Wake Up To Remember I Wonder (If You Ever Think Of Me) I'll Do It Make Believe Waltz Married Man Maybe He's Just Bashful One Boy Ruth's Self Defence Sit Down Strike Table For Three Tell Me Something Don't Tell Me Anything I Already Know The Adopted Son The Girl On The Stage To Hear You Talk Traveling Eyes Two Cups Of Water And A Toothpick Walking You Home Where There's A Will You're Running Out On Me |
All these songs were original Universal-Cedarwood songs,
so written in the 1956-1960 period.
They were copyrighted later, around 1963, by Acuff-Rose and several are included in the Loudermilk songbook published in the 1970s. But the copy of the lyrics of these songs are still hand-written texts. Probably these are never recorded/ released songs. |
|
Changeable
Island Of Love It Never Happened To Me Man What A Drag Mary Brown Tears May Come David the Prairie Dog Everything's the same but me Loudermilk / Wilkin |
All songs co-written with Marijohn Wilkin
Same story as songs above: original Universal-Cedarwood songs, 1956-1960. Most were copy-righted later, around 1963. Possibly never recorded/ released songs. |
'Changeable' could be James O'Gweynn on D??
'Island' not the Bobby Bare song, nor Howard Chandler, Gents or Carl Mann's song 'It Never Happened' not the Peggy Lee song |
I'm Kissing You Goodbye
Old Enough (To Cry) Bob Forshee / Loudermilk |
Same again: original Universal, copy-righted later. Possibly never recorded/ released songs. |
'I'm Kissing' is not the Ray Stevens song,
'Old Enough' not the Ray Peterson thing |
One Fella Girl I Don't Have A Date 'n I'm Free |
two probably 1960s songs, may well have been recorded but I haven't found the cover |
|
Maco Light
Loudermilk / Wilkin |
An interesting song, about a mysterious light, the ghost of a railroad man,
see lyrics |
Not the Hugh Grant song, nor the Don Dixon song (cover King Mackerel) |
Angel Of Love
Loudermilk / Bill C Phillips |
A Universal 1958-1960 song.
Phillips a was recording artist for Columbia who also worked with Kitty Wells |
Many songs by the title Angel Of Love, doo-wop,
Stu Phillips, Charlie Grace & many more.
But these are not the Loudermilk song I guess |
Let's Keep Our Secret
Bill Phillips/ Loudermilk |
might be 1962 |
|
But I Do
Loudermilk/ Paul Cohen |
Not in the BMI-files.
Found this one in a 1983 publication in the Library of Congres data;
Paul Cohen is probably the 1950s Nashville producer |
|
I'm just a Lonesome Bachelor
Loudermilk/ Siegel Jr. |
Not in BMI. Co-written with Ralph Siegel,
the German song writer who worked in Nashville |
|
Whispering streets
Cooke/ Loudermilk |
Not in BMI. I'm not sure who the Cooke is who co-wrote the song |
|
Humming along |

In the Dark |

could be 1968 or may be 1980s |

These songs are known to exist as bootleg copies of John D.'s album recorded in the 1980s in England.
But the album was never released so far. Some very fine songs, well worth to be released after all.
More info and a sample of Old San Juan, see my section unreleased songs All songs written by John D. Loudermilk, except the two (*) songs co-written with Susan Loudermilk. The songs haven't been registered in the BMI-files. |

This very long list are song titles added in 2003 in the Library of Congres data.
They have not been included in the earlier entries in the Library, nor are they copyrighted by
the BMI database.
I guess practically all of them haven't been released. These songs are a mix of some 1950s and many 1960s compositions, along with some later 1970s and 1980s songs. Some notes: (*1) This is said to be the first song John D. ever wrote. John had forgotten about it, but Burton Spicer who played with him in the early 1950s reminded him about it when the men met again during the 50-years commemoration of the first hit, Rose & Baby Ruth, in 2006. (*2) Song co-written with Susan Loudermilk (*3) An end 1960s song, see section unreleased songs. (*4) In the Marijohn Wilkin biography by Darryl E. Hicks book ("Marijohn", 1978), John D. is being quoted:

A Million Tears

These 2 Johnny Dee songs are classified as John D Loudermilk songs in the BMI-database.
They were released on a song poem label. Probably this Johnny Dee is not Loudermilk though |
