7 May 2005, Mike Johnson performs his most popular yodeling song at Bart Plantenga's yodel book lecture at the Bowery Poetry Club in New York, sharing the stage with Yodelers Randy Erwin and Lynn Book. Erwin is the yodeling voice in Disney's animated movie "HOME ON THE RANGE." Plantenga is a DJ, music historian and author of the 2004 best seller "Yodel-Ay-Eee-Ooo, The Secret History of Yodeling Around The World." This is Johnson's first official appearance following his November 2003 spinal cord injury. His song "Yeah I'm A Cowboy" is on Plantenga's "Rough Guide To Yodel" CD along with the songs of 17 other world famous Yodelers. The CD was released in September 2006 by the World Music Network in London-UK, and is available from Amazon.com and numerous Internet sites.
Mike wrote the "T-Shirt Yodel" back in June 1988 in response to the many comments he was getting about his official T-Shirt which reads "Mike Johnson Black Yodel No.1, Country Music's No.1 Black Yodeler." Even after reading this someone would invariably ask him "Do you really yodel?"
Johnson has written more yodeling songs than anyone, and his Yodel Song Archives, containing 114 yodeling songs written & composed by him, are in the Recorded Sound Reference Center's permanent music preservation collection at the Library of Congress.
"T-Shirt Yodel" is also available on the "Mike Johnson Yodeling 40 Years" 2-disc 50-song CD. The video of Bart Plantenga's Yodel show is available from Roughshod Records.
