May1963.Issued as “San Andreas “Fault,” but VinceSaunders in 1342 notes says,“Shake” was the title on an originalmanuscript by Lu in the collection of the SanFrancisco Traditional Jazz Foundation.Oddly, Watters copyrighted another tunewritten for that session, “Blues Over Bodega,”but not San Andreas Fault/Shake. Alsorecorded as “Shake” by Natural Gas JB (1979)and the New Hot Frogs (1991).San Antonio Rose (Bob Wills)John Gill’s Novelty Orchestra 1270Rec.

Because it’s “modern”: 1958.Strange, though: S&P say 1958, “Introducedby Jesse Fuller (Good Time Jazz),” but theearliest recording in Lord discography is thatBlues Over Bodega session by Wattersin1963.Wikipedia calls him a “one-man-bandmusician,” but cites album Good Time Jazz S-10051, 1963, liner notes by Lester Koenig.Looks like he’d been singing it and wasrecorded informally as far back as mid-1950s.It was on a Good Time Jazz 45 in1961. GoodTime LP in 1958 doesn’t seem to haveincluded that title. Known as “The Lone Cat.”San Francisco Glide (Joe McCarthy–Al Piantadosi)Chrysanthemum Ragtime Band 1047Confirmed by 8/15/10 copyright reg., w.

Andthe name on the copyright is Wm. ChristopherO’Hare, although he’s in the 1907 bookdozens of times as an arranger, almost alwaysas W. C. O’Hare, a few times as Wm. C.Couldn’t find the sheet music online, but founda lot of refs to it, and all included the hyphen,and most called him William Christopher.9/8/13 queried Adams, but I suspect that hejust overlooked the hyphen. Indeed, hereports “The Sand-Dancers” on both coverand copyright pages, and Wm.
