Here's another one: "You Got To Know How" was written by Sippie Wallace, whom I know as having performed with Bonnie Raitt. Sippie Wallace died November 1, 1986 (aged 88) The song's rights were held by Sippie Wallace Productions (BMI), a Michigan corporation, which was automatically dissolved in 1988 (apparently because of non-renewal). The songbook editors apparently found the BMI listing for this song. Is there some reason why they can't license it through BMI for the songbook? Same with Night Rider's Lament, by Michael Burton (and you thought it was by Jerry Jeff Walker, didn't you?). -Joe-
