*"Deep Elm" was composed by Willard Robison and Sonny Clay.

Herb and the Wiedoeft family orchestra breath new life into this famous folk blues song about a popular entertainment venue once located on Elm Street in a Dallas, Texas neighborhood known as "Deep Ellum".

The song was first recorded by the Cofer Brothers in 1923 for OKeh Records billed as the "Georgia Black Bottom".
