Dear Hans,
I've seen the film, but do not have a copy.
As you know Robert Crumb was/is an 'underground' cartoonist for ZAP 
Comix and a founder-member of the group The Cheap Suit Serenaders.
Here is what I have, which I've checked against my CD.
All the music for the film was arranged and performed by David 
Boeddinghaus (piano) and/or Craig Ventresco (guitar) as noted
The names in brackets are the original composers/ (Joseph Lamb).
David Boeddinghaus is the well-known, longtime New Orleans pianist with 
singer/banjoiist/bandleader Banu Gibson. On a visit to Australia with 
The Swedish Jazz Kings some years ago, David stayed with us here in 
Sydney. A musician/record collector he is an extremely knowledgeable. A 
wonderful pianist who really knows his stuff.
