*Suggested by Allen Meiselbach, who also provided an audio source. Those of you familiar with this site know of my dislike for missing or incomplete authorship attributions on these charts; in the case of this song (for which I've found only two releases) I have found nothing beyond the four last names shown here. Any assistance you can provide regarding full names would be much appreciated.
