"The Pirate Jenny" and "The Solomon Song" are two of the best examples of Weill and Brecht...

Clark, and Guy Murchio. Allerton Cushman, B. J. Harrison, and C. MeK, Norton were on the second boat, while James deNormandie, F. E. Farnsworth, F. B. Lee, and J. A. Swords pulled on the first 150 pound crew...
