Looking for songs...

I saw this movie the other day called "Zelig".
It's a Woody Allen movie about a guy from the Twenties. I was FASCINATED with the music and two in particular. One was called "I'll Get By" by the Ben Bernie Orchestra and the other is "Sunny Side Up" by The Charleston City All Stars. I've searched the net till I'm blurry eyed and I can't locate anything on these particular perfomances.
Anyone have any idea where I can get these?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Re: Looking for songs...

Best known (to me) recording of I'll Get By was by Dick Haymes (late 1940's), and that's available on several albums I saw listed recently. You can probably find it on the downloadable-internet sites too. Not sure about the availability of the Ben Bernie version, but there are websites that specialize in hard-to-find recordings. Good Luck.
