Dear DJML,

I just finished listening to the enjoyable movie "Sita Sings The Blues" 
<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZzKtU8eH20> featuring Annette Hanshaw's 
singing.

Now I'm trying to track down the tunes she sang.

The Charles Anderson collection contains seven tunes she recorded in the 
1920s.
I have not been able to find who composed five of these tunes.

...Here Or There (recorded in 1927)
...Mine - All Mine (recorded in 1927)
... I'm Somebody's Somebody Now (recorded in  1927)
...We Love It (recorded in 1928)
... I Like What You Like (recorded in 1927)

Does anyone have any information on them?

Thanks,
Bruce Stangeland
Berkeley banjoist
