May 12; Epub. 15552; Famous music corp., New York.In googling around on Hanshaw and Kane, Ifind lots without the quotes, but more withthem. And I find lots of mistaken “I’ve got itbad, but it don’t do me no good”--presumablypeople confusing it with Ellington’s I’ve got itbad and that ain’t good. And found subtitle inboth parens and set off by comma. So I justordered the sheet music from MTSU.

MTSUhas it, so I just ordered the darned thing to seeif there’s really a stupid subtitle there.
