Question about soundtrack

So, I was wondering if anyone knows how I can contact the owner(s) of the background soundtracks to this film? And not just the Ballad of Harry Warden song. I'm talking about the folk rock songs by Lee Bach and John McDermott, sung throughout the film. I already have the tracks sung by Marie Bottrell from her album "The Star" and Waxworks already released Paul Zaza's score on vinyl this year, but I literally scoured the internet and can't find the other songs anywhere. If anyone knows how to track them down, I'd really appreciate it. :)

I have no idea, sorry, except that I'm also looking for Home on the Highway by Lee Bach. I even emailed him a few years ago to see if there was a release anywhere and I never received a response. Now I can't even find his web site. 

Same here, I emailed him but never got a response. My guess would be sadly that the songs were just not properly kept track of over time and they got lost. That happened with a ton of Eighties horror film soundtrack. While all film and TV soundtrack is usually supposed to be preserved, some of it was just not saved. It's unfortunate though, because there were some great songs in My Bloody Valentine. :(
