That's the name of the album.  The song on the album is the same old folk song, John Barleycorn.

Ah - I haven't looked at it in a while; I was remembering it the other way around; "John Barleycorn Must Die" being a song on John Barleycorn, when the vise is, in fact, versa.  Kindly forgive the brainfart.



So, make that Jimmy Dean, "Big Bad John".
