[Dixielandjazz] Looking for sheet music, lead sheet, CD recording, etc.

[John Wilder]

Hi listmates,

 

I am usually a lurker, but a friend asked me to help find a song that they
heard on radio a while back.  Her husband would like it to be sung at his
funeral.  OKOM only in that Dixie bands sometimes play spirituals.  Perhaps
some of you might have a copy, or at least know more info about it.  Thanks
in advance!

Here's her info:

 

The main line of the song that I'm looking for sheet music for is "When I'm
on my journey don't you weep after me."  I'd also like a CD with a recording
of it, if that exists as well.

 

Below is the info I know about it:

 

It is a Weavers song .  They call it "On My Journey."  The "Reprints" book
says the song is a spiritual from the Bahamas, recorded on Pete Seeger at
the Village Gate, Folkways FA 2450.  "On My Journey," p. 172. "Weavers Song
Book," Arr. Robert de Cormier; 177pp., arrangements for piano and guitar.
Harper & Row, 1960. Labeled Traditional.
