Music/Merge artists57 messages

It's a wiki, so 2 items could you edit?

But if it is only a track by Bill Haley solo, you shouldn't.

Exactly.

I already saw that, for example, Bill Haley and his Comets were merged with Bill Haley and the Comets

That's because apparently it says that on the label.

I would do both: and Bill Haley with The Comets and Bill Haley and His Comets. And besides that Bill Haley loose but also Comets, The loose.

By the way, it seems to me that The Saddlemen is a different backing band than The Comets.

Another addition: we can start from Bill Haley & amp; Record The Comets and Bill Haley WITH The Comets as a name variant. Sounds more logical and better.

Correction: this was already the case. It's Bill Haley & amp; His Comets with Bill Haley & amp; The Comets as a name variant.

I have those two & amp; The Comets merged with the over 400 & amp; His Comets.

Also Haley, Bill is apparently a name variation of Bill Haley & amp; His Comets. You can also say about that .....

This just remains difficult

premise label leading will therefore not continue

still having problem with

John Lennon Plastic Ono Band

is for me

John Lennon

Yoko Ono (sometimes as a guest artist)

Plasric Ono Band (serving as guest performers)

I'm afraid we'll never get out of there. Plastic Ono Band is the main artist for me. You could mention Lennon and Ono separately as the main artist if they play on everything.

The problem is more that you can't select a solo list like this. I would like to be able to make a selection from Yoko or John alone, without Plastic Ono Band.

Remains insoluble.

I have already thought about this once and it will be fine. The elaboration of this has been in writing for some time now.

At Comics we have a main series switch for a series. With Platen you would then get a kind of oeuvre switch for an artist, where only the items are shown where the artist has been entered as Main artist.

That's great :-) I suggested that years ago :-)

That would be great if you could make such a selection.

Yes, but incorrectly entered items are therefore easily overlooked, so it does require some extra management work to get and keep everything in order.

But it can also be used as an extrs control tool and that works to the advantage of .........

That is only good if incorrect input is discovered like this ...

Yep! Compilation albums with each artist by the main artist are now obscure. So much faster soon.

But compilation albums have as main artist Miscellaneous Artists

and individually guest artist the artist

if you search for artist or band, those collect things will also appear

only when looking for lennon! I want Lennon as an artist but not as a guest artist

But I think we still have a few wishes.

just be patient and it will "almost" come by itself

There are countless compilation albums where the tracks are not filled in, but all artists are listed under Main artist, you know ...

Is often old very

and that can be solved to make track mandatory although it is a lot to ask

If you can't name Lennon and Ono, then you don't have a Plastic ono band.
The performers are the band.
If there are no artists, you don't have a band.

Plastic Ono Band is a main artist in its own right. Lennon and Ono (as well as a number of others) are members of that band. You could mention the members on the background page.

Lennon and Ono also made records separately from the POB.

John and Yoko are part of plastic Ono strap only 1 year later

she used John with P O band

and then you just see something like Cliff & amp; Shadows

only he also released records under their own name, so both main artist

only if the shadows did the b side alone then things go wrong

and this occurs in Wings and many more groups

It is not a problem and we can do it quietly in due course

Think about it
