RECAP filing here, looks incomplete, but the list of evidence is there.

List of songs in complaint (PDF).

One song at random: A Ribbon and a Rose by "Little" Jimmy Dickens.

Are these available anywhere from the Labels? Seems like an issue for DataHoarders and The Streisand Effect.

Yes. Just looking at Louis Armstrong, Apple Music specifically has Struttin’ With Some Barbeque as the 78 rpm version.
