Lindbergh (The Eagle of the U.S.A.)

"Lindbergh (The Eagle of the U.S.A.)" was a popular song written by famous Tin Pan Alley songwriters, Howard Johnson and Al Sherman in 1927.

It chronicles Charles Lindbergh's famous pioneer solo-flight across the Atlantic Ocean in the Spirit of St. Louis.

The song was an overnight hit being released immediately on the heels of Lindbergh's safe landing.

Joel Whitburn estimates this recording would have appeared on the Billboard Hot 100 chart beginning August 1927, achieving a position of #4.
