This is one of my favorites. When I headed English at VOA, I produced a special show on one of the Lindbergh anniversaries, just so I could play Vernon Dalhart's version of this song.
It got a lot of eye rolls from the younger staffers, but made for a great contemporary perspective for the show.
So there!
Thanks for the links!

Then there's the numerous other popular songs.
No less than, "Lucky, Lucky Lindberg, Eagle of the USA," from an unissued Bob Mielke's Bearcats clip:
