Suggestions for locating Robeson sheet music

Sheet music is hard to locate. Sometimes the lyrics can be found in the liner notes. Usually you must know the _author_ of the song, which is probably _not_ Paul Robeson.
Please let us know about other sources for lyrics and sheet music.
You can try asking the distributor(s) of the recordings -- they may know of a source for the sheet music. See our "recordings" directory at:: http://www.pobox.com/~robeson/links/recordings.html
