Imho, at least, no - I'd agree that that would be counter to the point of works... (Plus, then, who is the artist when dealing with a work performed by multiple different pop artists? Wouldn't this essentially fragment works into being a useless version of the recordings list?) > That actually does sound quite useful as a way to find > all "songs" by an artist, I'd think that purpose would be handled by the Artist Recordings listing, not the Works listing... > ignoring different versions, but opposite to > what I had assumed and not what I typically think of as a "work". Agreed. Brian
