| | The flipside, "Ol' Man River" is a great two sider, both excellent songs worthy of a listen. | | | This is the promo copy number 880 and "Ol Man River" is probably the "A" side based on the matrix #. | | | Which Record pairing was released first (Yo Yo Walk or Ol' Man River)is somewhat unclear based on dead wax numbers, but my guess is Ol' Man River because it appeared on the Casa Grande release. |

| | Where Have You Gone, Oscar Hammerstein? - From Show Boat to Sondheim is a long way down. By Mark Steyn |
| | "Ol' Man River" was the song in which he first found his lyrical voice, compressing the suffering, resignation, and anger of an entire race into 24 taut lines and doing it so naturally that it's no wonder folks assume the song's a Negro spiritual. | | | Sondheim has given us plotless musicals (Company) and characterless musicals (Pacific Overtures) and pointillist musicals (Sunday in the Park With George) and musicals that go backward (Merrily We Roll Along), but for all the supposed range and depth and variety, what you mainly notice about these musicals is Sondheim. | | | One reason "Ol' Man River" is a powerful, memorable lyric is that there's no rhyme until the eighth and 10 |
