Hey, thanks for pointing that out. I don't know where I got the Will Geer name as author of Lemon Tree. I see it listed as Will Holt.

I see the only record I could find of Will Geer was as a narrator on an album with him and Woodie Guthrie singing Woodie's songs, like Grand Coulee Dam, Pastures of Plenty, This land is your land, Do re mi.

That album was 'Bound For Glory', Smithsonian label.

I only looked it up because I thought that the Kingston Trio had written the song. But I was wrong as well.
