I would like to re-record a song released on Columbia 14324D - Recorded 3-20-1928 NYC New York - Bessie Smith On Vocals.
"Put It Right Here (Or Keep It Out Of There)" Words & Music By Porter Grainger.
The song was featured in a live musical Broadway show, "Me and Bessie" in 1974-5.
Maria Muldaur released it on a recent album "Richland Woman Blues".

I would like publisher and date in order to get the rights to re-record this song.

P.Grainger is not affiliated with ascap, and Harry Fox doesn't have this song.
BMI, SESAC, no luck
I have searched the internet for more details but this is all I have.
Playbill of the Broadway show listed publishers for many songs but not this one.

It's not Public Domain yet, I think it has to be before 1923 and this is 1928.
Any help would be appreciated.
