Just a warning. Do not assume that a recording is your property unless you either get a "work for hire" agreement or the work was recorded under an appropriate union contract. Are you likely to encounter a problem? No, not hardly...only if you get very lucky and your song is wildly profitable. In that case, it is possible you may spend a lot of that money you make on legal woes.
Of course you may have a different opinion, so go ahead and do what you wish
LAST tangent..
Mike, I cannot fathom what legal principle the musicians would use to justify any claim to a track where their performances were recorded. The writer pays them to perform. They didn't write anything whatsoever. Again, unless there is some sort of union imposing rules, by *default*, I don't see how the musicians would really have a position.
