If you’ve lived in south-central Idaho for any length of time and don’t know that Wendell’s Larry LaPrise wrote the ubiquitous children’s song Hokey Pokey, I’m revoking your citizenship.

But his claims have always been controversial, and now the other songwriter who penned a version of Hokey Pokey is also gone. Robert Degen, a musician from Scranton, Pa., who copyrighted a song called The Hokey Pokey Dance in 1944, died recently at age 104/Steve Crump, Twin Falls Times-News. More here.
